Acknowledgment of Mission and Faith Statement*

Black Rock Philosophy of Ministry

Motto
“To Know Christ and Make Him Known”

Mission Statement
“Black Rock is dedicated to spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ and strengthening His church. We provide quality facilities, programs and a serving team member within a refuge of God’s creation which encourages spiritual growth and restoration.”

Core Values
Black Rock follows a set of core values which are fundamental to our operations and relationships with both team members and those we serve. These core values are:

Ministry – We recognize that the primary focus of this organization is evangelism and ministry. We are committed to remaining true to our Faith Statement as we provide an atmosphere where both children and adults can experience spiritual and personal growth, restoration and encouragement. We are committed to recognizing the diverse and changing needs of those we serve and being willing to adapt our ministry to meet those needs as the Lord leads.

People – Because we are all created in God’s image, we are committed to treating everyone with dignity, respect and love. We strive to create an atmosphere where all people feel valued in their relationship with Black Rock.

Teamwork – We are a team combining our talents and resources to serve our guests and each other in a Christ-like manner. To do this we commit to: trust each other’s unique contributions, transparently engage in open dialogue, embrace differences rather than avoid conflict and ultimately support each decision with personal action and mutual accountability.

Stewardship – Stewardship means managing all of the resources God has entrusted to us wisely and responsibly. These resources include but are not limited to our guests, grounds, facilities, natural environment, finances, staff, volunteers and Board of Directors. We are committed to exercising good stewardship in every facet of our ministry.

Quality – Quality is recognizing and establishing appropriate standards and then managing ourselves and our organization to meet those standards. We will strive to maintain excellence in our grounds, facilities, programs and services as well as employing and training quality team members.

Safety – Safety is the value we place on the well-being of ourselves and those we serve. Recognizing that God is our protector, we are also committed to providing both training and a safe work environment for our team member and our volunteers, as well as a place of physical and emotional safety for those we serve.

Faith Statement
We Believe In:
• The complete inspiration of the Old and New Testaments as the Word of God
• The triune God who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit
• The deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, His substitutionary atonement for sin and His bodily resurrection
• The person of the Holy Spirit and His work of conviction, regeneration and sanctification; who indwells every believer
• The necessity of the new birth, in salvation by faith in Jesus Christ alone
• The importance of a life fully committed to the will of God in Christ
• Human life is a gift of God culminating in eternal life for the believer or eternal separation from God for the unbeliever

By clicking this box I am signifying that I understand and will respect and honor the Black Rock Mission and Faith Statement stated above.
