Providing access to Chinese culture and communities within an American context for people of all backgrounds

Our Values
GOD-CENTERED

God is our creator, redeemer, sanctifier, judge, and glorifier; therefore, we worship, love and serve him.
BIBLICAL

God speaks to us most clearly and reliably in the Bible; therefore, we seek to understand Scripture accurately, and apply it relevantly.
TRANSFORMATIONAL

God forgives our sin through the atoning death of Jesus, and regenerates us through his indwelling Spirit; therefore, we live as redeemed and transformed, turning from sin and pursuing holiness.
COMMUNAL

God calls us not merely to himself, but also to each other in community; therefore, we live together to fulfill God’s calling for us individually and corporately.
MISSIONAL

Christ commissions us to be his ambassadors in the world; therefore, we participate in his mission, through spreading the gospel and helping those in need.
