Mission, Vision & Values
Our Mission
Our mission is to reach people for Christ, give them a place to belong, and help them grow in their faith. This three-fold purpose is at the heart of everything we do. It actually boils down to three simple words: BELIEVE, BELONG & BECOME. We hope everyone who comes to Linwood will do those three things, and that individually and corporately we will never stop growing.
Our Vision
We talk a lot about our vision to be and increasingly become a healthy family of families, and we should. It's more than a slogan for us. It's what drives our staff and leadership as we make decisions; it's what makes Linwood "feel like home" for new visitors and long-time members; and it's becoming a reality more and more, thanks to the amazing people who give, serve and lead here at Linwood.
Our Core Values

Leaving a Legacy of Faith
Intentionally stewarding our influence and our resources to transmit and cultivate life-long and multi-generational devotion to Christ—both now and long into the future.
