The people of Imani Fellowship are empowered by the Holy Spirit to serve Christ with love, power, passion, purpose, and faith; to "love one another" as God first loved us. We intentionally welcome All people without favoritism; offering the hospitality Jesus showed us. We serve Christ with our whole mind, body and spirit, dedicated to a ministry of Discipleship.

Together we witness to God's Life Changing Grace in our lives through our common ministry of proclamation of the Gospel, healing, restoration, and support in service to one another, our community, our environment, and the world; especially toward the least among us.

Jesus’ actual ministry on earth was short — approximately three years. Because his teachings challenged powerful religious and government leaders, he was executed as a dangerous and seditious criminal. He died, was buried and was resurrected by God. For Christians, this resurrection is God’s most amazing miracle and proof that Jesus was indeed divine.
We believe that Jesus is as alive today as he was on the first Easter morning and that he is present with us today, even though we cannot see him or physically touch him. We call Jesus “Lord” because he has saved us from the power of death and the power of sin and because, through his sacrifice, we are able to know the fullness of God’s love for us.
Christians also believe that Jesus will one day return to the earth to complete the task of creating a world where justice, peace and love rule and evil is no more. To those who believe in Christ, such an event is seen not with fear but with joyful anticipation. Because Jesus showed that not even death can stop God’s purpose and God’s activity, we know that we have life and hope forever.                      http://gamc.pcusa.org/ministries/101/jesus/
