Welcome to
Connect. Grow. Serve.
Are you looking for a way to get more
Connected?
What to expect
Together we meet in a school, and this may make things look a little different than the norm. But, after you beat the rising nostalgia (or fear) of going back to Elementary school, you'll walk through the gates and find a smiling face to say "Good morning!", give you a handshake--or a high five--and hand you a paper that tells a little more about the speaker, the worship, and any upcoming events for you to connect with. Then you'll reach the gym where we worship together. Grab some coffee once you're there and a seat wherever. And who knows, maybe stay around for a pick-up basketball game after the service.
We are so glad you're here!
aboutus
Our vision is to offer a warm, friendly atmosphere where everyone is welcome.
We are reaching out to our community and spreading the Word of God to those around us. Stop by for some coffee, good fellowship, and a message that will help you grow in Christ, from wherever you are starting.
What we
believe
Word-Driven
We are committed to teaching from the Bible and learning what God has for us in today's world.
Spirit-Led
We believe the Holy Spirit indwells those who trust in Jesus as Savior and so we lean on Him to lead us in the everyday stuff of life.
Jesus-Following
We are committed to being intentional followers of Jesus Christ. Through His Word and Spirit we can know how to live a life that is growing in the grace and knowledge of Him.
God-Honoring
We love to gather as a fellowship and worship God through music, teaching and submission to His Word and ways.
A Body of Believers
We are His church. We're not here because we're good enough or dress right, or have earned God's favor. We're a group of redeemed people in love with Jesus and learning to grow together to accomplish His will in our lives and in our world.
Meet the pastor
Jeff was born and raised in the small town of Dansville in the western New York area. He has been married to his wife, Connie, since 1984 and is a proud father of three children as well as a proud grandfather of two special little boys. Jeff and Connie surrendered to full-time ministry shortly after getting married. God directed them to Davis College where Jeff received his Teacher’s and Bible/Missions Ministries Diploma. The couple has served for 25 years as Church Planters working under Continental Baptist Missions located in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Since moving to Surprise, the Benner family has loved calling the state of Arizona home. Their passion is to see a thriving church that is an outreach into the community by loving others and making disciples who show people how to connect, grow, and serve.
