God's Word
We believe that the Bible and its testimony to Christ is the source and center of everything we
do! It tells us of God's love for us and gives us solid guidance for our daily lives.
Community
One of the best thing about church is the people! At Fishers of Family, we pride ourselves in
forming authentic relationships where people can rejoice together in good times and support
each other during hard times.
Baptism & The Lord's Supper
Jesus commanded that we baptize and share his body and blood in his Supper. These offer
strength for everyday life and draw us closer together in community.
Prayer
Prayer works! Through prayer, we can talk to God and he can talk to us through the whisper of
his Spirit. For any need, no matter how large or small, we are a church which prays!
Worship
The Bible is full of examples of people praising God. Every weekend, Fishers of Family gathers
to worship God, praising his name and celebrating what he has done for us.
Witness
What Jesus has done is good news! He came to earth to bring us into a relationship with God.
We want to share his good news with as many people as possible.

These words from Acts 2 describe what was at the heart of the earliest Christian church and
also what is at the heart of Fishers of Family. It is from these words that we derive the core
values which shape our ministry.
