This Is Who We Are
Our mission is to develop people with a heart for God, one another, and the lost. "The Plan" is a four-part approach to becoming more and more like Jesus Christ for the Glory of God - Invite. Connect. Equip. Mobilize. Our mission and Plan work together to inspire the heartbeat of Haven Church.
Inviting others into our lives so they can see God's Love & Truth.
God's primary way to reach His creation is by using His people. We all desire to be used by God. We want to create a culture in our congregation that is able to understand and listen to hearts through relationships with people, while being a witness of the gospel!
"Join us as we learn how to be more inviting together. Our goal is for everyone of us to be an authentic witness for Christ; and we seek to do this in our families, jobs, schools and everywhere else we go! We want to give the world a glimpse of Christ's love in and through our lives." ~Darius White

Prayer Shawls
We attach a card with a general prayer of blessing to each handmade knitted or crocheted shawl, and give the shawls to the Chaplain’s office at Bronson Hospital. The shawls will then be given to those sitting with a family member or to the patients themselves. In this small way we can share Christ's love to those hurting. Let us know if you are interested in helping out with this special ministry.
