Eikon: Pronounced eye-con, is from the Greek and means image, figure or likeness.
We are created as Eikons of God and are being transformed into the image of Jesus who is the only perfect Eikon. 2 Corinthians 3:18
Our desire is to experience God’s glory and reflect it to the world.
We are a missional community which means our focus is not on attracting more people to church but attracting more people to God by being the church in our communities. This means that most of what we do is outside of the walls of the church building but we still do gather every Thursday Night at 7:30pm at Bethany Bible Church to eat, worship, learn and share together. Following each gathering join us at LUX coffee shop for a time hang out and support local businesses.
Our desire is to see young adults mobilized and comissioned to live out their faith in their workplaces, schools, homes, coffee shops, clubs, etc. We will be launching some area missional communities and will keep you informed when that happens.
In the meantime, please join us each Thursday as we begin this missional journey together.

Serving the Church
This past Saturday’s (Nov 15) service project to serve an expanded definition of the church went very well. Another valley church was doing a service day on their property and several of us spent the day cleaning, prepping, painting, and working on construction projects along side fellow followers of Christ (the church). I left the day very encouraged seeing 100s of God’s people mobilized to serve. I’m excited to see a body of believers go missional. This concept is so much more than a group service projects, its an intentional lifestyle. Leaving…listening…living among…loving without strings
