Origins Community Church is committed to God, family, friends and our community. We are a church that does not have members, but has extended family. Origins is a place where people can connect in such a way that they are experiencing real compassion and acceptance - a place where the body is available to its family, and the family are available to God. As a church we have a desire to walk and talk intimately with our God, both on a personal level and as a collective community of believers, where our love for God is the reason we come to worship and our inbred excitement to serve our God is the reason we sacrifice of ourselves. We want to see each and every person challenged. We want to be relevant for the 21st century, flexible and willing to be moved from where we are to where God wants us to be. We believe concepts such as love, respect and understanding should not be words tucked into a sermon but rather words written on the hearts of our church family - a church that speaks the truth and also turns that truth into a tangible reality. Our vision is that Origins is anything but normal, anything but traditional and anything but the expected. But still people will not feel out of place or uncomfortable when they join us for worship. In so doing we want to be experiencing God and interactively worshipping Him in order to have a ripple effect into our church family and our community at large. We desire to be real people, serving the real God, unapologetically. Our desire is for Origins to be on the lips of the community – not because of the people, but because of who we are and what we do. We believe in living the faith that our Lord Jesus gives to us, through the power of His holy Spirit, and in so doing making ourselves available for God to work in us and through us.
