OUR MISSION

To love and lead all people to live as passionate and mature disciples of Jesus.

OUR VALUES & VISION

We believe God has given us 5 core values as a church that define who we are and shape our culture at HVBC.

1. Jesus Christ our Cornerstone

We are a church full of people who love and follow Jesus. We are a church committed to the truth of the Bible, and who seek first God’s Kingdom and righteousness in all we do. We are a church passionate about seeing Jesus glorified in all we say and do.

Ephesians 2:13-22, 1 Peter 2:4-7, Matthew 16:15-19, Matthew 6:33

2. The Great Commission

We are a church continually on the move - a church that loves people and goes places. We are a church where people respond to the call to be and grow as passionate and mature followers of Jesus. We are a church that raises and sends people and resources to see the Gospel of Jesus shared with more people in more places.

Matthew 28:18-20, Acts 1:8

3. Faith as Community

We are a church where people experience deep community and personal connection. We are a church who love to gather, grow, give and serve - a church where everyone has a part to play and a place to belong. We are a church where people’s love for Jesus and one another is real and tangible.

Acts 2:42-47, John 13:34-35, Hebrews 10:24-25

4. Championing Generations

We are a church where every generation is valued with a place and a part to play. We are a church who build platforms for the next generations to launch further from. We are a church who strengthen and bless people, families and local communities.

Psalm 145:4-9, Deuteronomy 6:4-7, 1 Corinthians 12:14-26

5. The Holy Spirit

We are a church who experiences the voice, presence and power of the Holy Spirit. We are a church where the Holy Spirit fills, speaks, guides, works, empowers and gifts. We are a church who is supernaturally courageous, faith-filled, faithful, inspired and influential.
