ABOUT AGAPE CHURCH
Welcome to Agape Church!
Agape Church is a Christ-centered, Bible-based, local church in the Northern Virginia, Greater Washington DC & Greater Baltimore area. Our purpose is to be obedient to God's Word, based on the principles of the New Testament, to continue steadfastly in apostle's doctrine, fellowship, breaking of bread and in prayers (Acts 2:42).
Agape Church caters to the well being of the total person-body, soul and spirit (I Thessalonians 5:23 and III John 2). It is a family church that ministers to adults, youth and children. There are special activities for the college and career group. The activities and services of Agape Church are open to all who are interested in attending and/or participating. It welcomes people of all walks of life, regardless of color, nationality, language, gender, etc. (Revelation 7:9).
Our Vision
Our vision is to create disciple-making communities, that worship our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, through loving our Savior, serving our neighbors, teaching our people, and reaching our world.
Our Mission
To witness the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and bring many souls into the kingdom of God.
To shepherd and build up the believers in the faith and facilitate their growth in the grace and the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
To prepare the church for the glorious second appearance of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Statement of Faith
We believe the Holy Bible is the inerrant, infallible, and final authority of God's Word, sufficient for all matters of faith and practice.
​
We believe in the Triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, coequal and coeternal, working in perfect unity for the salvation of mankind.
​
We believe that salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, based on His atoning death and bodily resurrection.
​
We believe that the local church is the primary expression of the body of Christ, where believers gather regularly for worship, teaching, fellowship, prayer, and the proclamation of the Gospel.
​
We believe in the priesthood of all believers, where both men and women are equally precious before God and gifted by the Holy Spirit for service, while affirming that the office of pastor is reserved for qualified men as taught in Scripture.
​
We believe that the Lord's Supper is a symbolic act of obedience, regularly practiced by believers in remembrance of Christ's sacrifice and in anticipation of His return.
​
We believe in the visible, personal, and imminent return of Jesus Christ to gather His Church and judge the living and the dead.
​
We believe that every believer is called to personal evangelism and making disciples, both locally and globally, to fulfill the Great Commission.
