EVERY TRIBE AND NATION
BAPTIST CHURCH
ABOUT OUR CHURCH
MISSION
Our mission is to make disciples among every tribe and nation in Arizona and around the world. We believe a disciple is a fully devoted follower of Jesus Christ: someone who chooses to follow Jesus, is being transformed by Jesus, and has joined the mission of Jesus. We believe Jesus impacts our Head, Heart, and Hands!
VISION
Our vision is to multiply among every tribe and nation. We envision a day where every church member will be a missionary, and that they are equipped and sent into their local communities to share the hope of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We are currently multiplying locally through small groups, investing regionally through church planting, and building strategic global partnerships to take the Gospel to the ends of the earth.
COMMUNITY
We are located in an area where people from many different countries, cultures, and backgrounds are present. We believe the local church should be multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, and multi-generational. That is why we are passionate about Every Tribe and Nation!

Our church is part of the Southern Baptist Convention. You may find our belief statements (The Baptist Faith and Message) here.
