Our Mission
Reach. Equip. Grow.
Equip 20 somethings to be lifelong disciples of Jesus and shepherd a lost generation.
ABOUT THE JESUS CONNECTION
Your 20s are a transformative time. You face new experiences, new choices and new decisions. It's also a time of discovery. Discovering who you are, what you want to be and the family you'll have. The Jesus Connection is a community of people who can see you through these discoveries. It's a group of people you can trust and who can sympathize with you. It's a family who will celebrate the good times with you and carry you through the difficult. It's a community who will always support you in your walk with Jesus and encourage you to follow His plans for your life.
Whether you're single, married, a parent or caretaker, in college or building your career,
The Jesus Connection is your family.

Our Values

We believe in and long for God's righteousness (Mt. 5:6).
Peacemakers
We strive to promote God's peace in our world (Mt. 5:9).
Mournful
We mourn our sin and long for God's forgiveness (Mt. 5:4).
Merciful
We live to forgive as we have been forgiven (Mt. 5:7).
Persecuted for Christ
We boldly live out our faith, whatever the cost (Mt. 5:10).
Meekness
We trust in God's strength and live to serve others (Mt. 5:5).

Jesus Came for YOU
"I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me."
- Galatians 2:20
Our Lord Jesus Christ humbled Himself to the point of death on the cross for you (Philippians 2:8). How will you show your love for Him in return? Join other young adults as we encourage one another, grow our relationships with Jesus and share Him with others.
