Helping people discover and rediscover Jesus
We know you could be anywhere else but we are delighted you’re with us at East Side! We are in the business of helping people discover and rediscover Jesus and believe our questions are not the opposite of faith, but rather a natural part of our faith journey. Please let us know how we can come alongside you and your family to serve you better!
Hello!
Our Vision
It is the vision of a place where people gather to worship and serve our God who is exactly like Jesus, always has been and always will be, and is committed to the goodness of God.
It is the vision of a place where the hurting, the broken, the confused can find love, inspiration, and a sense of belonging; A place that values the exploring of our faith, the freedom to think, and people with doubts and questions are safe and welcomed.
It is the vision of a place where people are loyal to, and committed to, living out and promoting the Kingdom of God and His grace, where our faith expresses itself in love.
It is a vision of a place that welcomes and desires people of all ages, all races and ethnicities can worship together, and we learn to love and worship together despite political perspectives and opinions.
It is the vision of a place that will be a training center, where the gifts of leadership are recognized in both men and women, that raises up future leaders who will pastor churches with a similar vision of love.
We believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
We believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit
and born of the virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to hell.
The third day he rose again from the dead.
He ascended to heaven
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty.
From there he will come to judge the living and the dead.
We believe in the Holy Spirit,
the universal church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.
