We, as a community of Spirit-filled believers commit to exalt God, to evangelize the lost, and to edify and equip the church for ministry.

OUR MISSION

TO EXALT:

North Cleveland glorifies God through a lifestyle of personal obedience and communion with Him; and, in the spirit and power of Pentecost, worships Him in seasons of praise, brokenness, power and blessing.

• We worship the Lord, expressing our reverence, love and allegiance to Him.
• We develop the habit of earnest and effectual prayer.
• We continually bear witness to those around us, not only of God’s miraculous deeds, but also of His daily providential care.
• We exalt the Lord through our service to Him, seeking to be instruments of His will and purpose.

TO EVANGELIZE:

North Cleveland mobilizes every believer to present the gospel in the power of the Holy Spirit to the unsaved.

• We challenge one another to recognize the need for sharing the message of the Gospel and to understand our personal responsibility in meeting that need.
• We train one another in the specific skills needed to effectively witness.
• We seek out and develop opportunities for “hands-on” involvement in presenting the Gospel to others.

TO EDIFY:

North Cleveland builds a Biblical community of believers, serving and building up one another in Christ-like relationship.

• We love, accept and encourage all within our fellowship without regard to social, economic or cultural distinctions.
• We motivate each other to develop Christ-likeness in our daily living.
• We care for and share with one another in times of need.
• We build relationships that strengthen each of us, recognizing that we are the body of Christ fitly joined together.

TO EQUIP:

North Cleveland develops its members into mature believers, leading them to discover spiritual gifts and calling, and deploys them as skillful ministers of God’s grace.

• We preach and teach the Word of God.
• We help each other discover our individual interests, gifts and abilities and train one another to effectively minister in our specific areas of gifting.
• We seek out and develop meaningful opportunities for involvement in ministry.
• Follow-through and continual improvement are a part of all that we do, as we seek to grow in our walk with Christ
