Who We Are​​
​
We believe that we are called by God to bring hope to our community and the greater world through Christ's call to be His witnesses. Our church family seeks to help you in your faith journey by accomplishing the following mission:
​
To Love People - God's love was given to us through a relationship with Jesus Christ, and we must show His love to our community and the greater world.
​
To Share Christ - Christ's message of redemption is at the core of our existence. As a Believer, we are called to bring as many as possible along with us to Heaven.
​
To Bring Hope - Redemption and reconciliation through Jesus Christ to an intimate relationship with God is the greatest message of Hope for all time.
​
What Do We Believe?
Simply, we are an evangelical Pentecostal church affiliated with the General Council of the Assemblies of God. Our faith is built on Christ from an understanding that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. It is our desire to see people in Perry come to know Christ as their Savior and then grow in Christ to realize the fullness of their salvation. Our Lead Pastors, Greg and Kathy Benton, would welcome any opportunity to explain and answer in detail any additional theological questions you might have. They can be contacted at NDAperry@gmail.com.
Core Values
People - We are always excited to meet new people and welcome new friends and acquaintances as we share our lives together celebrating our walk with Christ displayed in compassionate love and encouragement to each other.
The Bible - This is God’s inspired Word that reveals Himself and His Plan for Salvation. We devote our daily lives to the Bibles’ teachings as the core of truth and the way of life that God intended.
​
Prayer - We cannot accomplish Christ's mission nor become Christ's people without a full and deep commitment to both individual and corporate prayer.
​
Community - Our faith must result in the development of a mature Body of Believers that shows compassion and commitment to each other and to our community of Perry.
Body Ministry - The strength of the Body of Believers rests in the empowerment of all Believers to do the work of service and ministry. All, no matter their role and function are important in building a community of Believers who serve each other in their Spirit empowered gifting.
Evangelism - We are committed to share the hope of Christ with the world (locally, nationally, and globally). We seek to empower people by creating opportunities to serve, give, and pray.
Spiritual Growth - Communication with God through prayer and worship expresses our submission, and thanksgiving. We seek God’s love, leading, and empowerment to continue His purpose in every life.
​
Christ's Healing Work - We embrace healing for emotional, physical and relational needs. We believe that Christ is our Healer.
​
Empowerment by God's Spirit - The lesson of Acts is that we can't do the work of Christ to build His Church but it's through the empowerment of the Holy Spirit to unfold His gifts in our lives.
