Our mission can be summed up with the words...KNOW, GROW, and SHOW.
At Iva First it is our goal that everyone within our circle of influence will...
KNOW Christ.
"Be still and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10
Knowing Christ comes from experiencing Christ. At Iva first we experience God by committing to attend the Sunday morning worship service, engage God in personal daily devotions by reading His Word, prayer, and private worship, and tithing 10% of our income.
GROW in Christ.
"Therefore let us leave the elementary teaching about Christ and be taken forward to maturity." Hebrews 6:1
Growing in Christ happens when we commit to discipleship. Discipleship at Iva First happen in Sunday School, Small Groups, and one on one encounters with other believers.
SHOW the love of Christ.
"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another." - John 13:34
God has called us to be servants. We believe as followers of Christ that we are to show His love to everybody within our circle of influence. This can be done through the ministries of Iva First and in our daily routine.
