“Building bridges to Christ for all—within and beyond the church, for every generation and family.”
Winfield First's Mission Statement
Our mission is fueled by five core values—Discipleship, Big Tent Spirit, Mission-Oriented living, Caring, and Family Ministry.
Our Five Core Values
Discipleship – Disciples Who Make Disciples
"Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." – 2 Peter 3:18
We do not choose convenience. We are committed to embracing every opportunity to grow spiritually, to teach, and to learn. Our church fosters spiritual development by providing opportunities for all members to deepen their faith, engage in meaningful study, and grow as disciples of Jesus Christ. Through worship, small groups, and personal devotion, we seek to reflect Christ more each day.
Mission-Oriented – Serving with Love and Purpose
"Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth." – 1 John 3:18
We are a church that goes beyond our walls, dedicating ourselves to serving the local community and the world. With hearts full of generosity, we live out the gospel through outreach, justice, and acts of love and service.
Big Tent – A Church for All
"Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God." – Romans 15:7
We gather as a church to grow as disciples, united in faith and love. Whether conservative or progressive politically, all are welcome to embrace one another and discover what it truly means to love our neighbors. We believe that discipleship flourishes in a community where everyone has a place to share their lives and spiritual journey, growing together in Christ.
Caring Community – Loving One Another
"Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." – Galatians 6:2
We are called to be a people of grace, reconciliation, and deep care for one another. Through listening, open communication, and support, we strive to “do no harm” and to love our neighbors as Christ loves us.
Family Ministry – Nurturing the Next Generation
"Train up a child in the way he should go, and even when he is old, he will not depart from it." – Proverbs 22:6
The church is a spiritual family where all generations are connected, supported, and nurtured. We place a special emphasis on ministering to children and youth, ensuring they grow in faith, belonging, and discipleship. With prayerful dedication, we commit our efforts and resources to raising the next generation in faith, equipping them to follow Christ and live out their calling.
