Vision & Mission

Value - We are passionate about seeing the "one new man" (Eph 2:15) of Messianic Jews and Christians worshipping and praying together.  Specifically, we are establishing a house of worship, prayer, and study ... following styles from houses of prayer across the nations, the Jewish beth midrash (house of study and worship), and specifically the houses of prayer in Israel.  By establishing an American prototype, we hope to inspire and serve other houses of prayer toward embracing Israel at the next level.  Status - We are worshipping and praying together weekly, while also reading the book Shifting Nations Through Houses of Prayer by Rick and Patricia Ridings.

​

Value - We treasure the Holy Spirit as the gateway to connecting with the Father and the Son.  Jesus said, "But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away!  For if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you" (John 16:7).  Status - We are praying in the Spirit as a lifestyle, so that we become "a dwelling place of God in the Spirit" (Eph 2:22).

​

Value - We trust that when the apostolic and prophetic leaders of a region gather, a foundation will be built for a holy temple (Eph 2:20). Status - As we connect with apostolic and prophetic leaders, regardless of occupation, unity will accelerate the goal of establishing the First Coast region as "a dwelling place of God in the Spirit" (Eph 2:22).

​

Value - We honor and bless the fathers and mothers who have gone before us the past few decades, as well as those in past centuries who established the First Coast.  Status - In order to build upon their foundation, we are beginning to research the history of the region ... with an emphasis on the work by intercessors and leaders in recent decades.
