About All Saints Presbyterian Church
-
All Saints is a worshiping community in Meridian, Idaho, rooted in the belief that the historic Christian gospel is true, compelling, and transformative. We come from all stages and walks of life. So whatever your background, whether you are committed to Jesus, skeptical of his claims, or just curious about his story, come join us on Sunday mornings.
Our Purpose
Christians in the past summarized the purpose of human existence saying, “Man’s chief end is to glorify God and enjoy him forever.” While this is the ultimate reason for which God made all human beings, the unique mission with which Jesus has charged the church is to “make disciples” (Matt. 28:16-20). By definition, a disciple is a follower of another, one who imitates the life and faith of the one they follow.
As a church, our purpose is to make disciples of Jesus who will in turn fulfill their chief end of glorifying and enjoying God. The result of men, women and children becoming and growing as mature and equipped followers of Christ is transformation, both personally (2 Cor. 5:17) and at every level of society (Col. 1:19).
Our Vision
To make and deploy mature and equipped followers of Christ for the sake of family, city, and global transformation.
As each of us knows from our own spiritual journey and our study of the Scriptures, the making of a mature and equipped follower of Christ is a process. Ultimately, the transformation of a person who is unfamiliar with Jesus or his church into a person who is a servant-leader like Jesus depends on the work of the Holy Spirit. However, from Scripture we see that humanly speaking that process commonly consists of the following which makes up our mission.
