Being a disciple is a lifelong process.  Longbranch is committed to sharing the message of salvation by grace through faith in Christ.  But entering a right relationship with God through faith is just the beginning of the Christian life.  Therefore, we pour ourselves into each other, day by day and week after week.  We encourage each other to live transformed lives, reflecting our love for God, our desire to see His name exalted, and our freedom from destructive patterns of sin.  

The Bible teaches that God created the family as the basic building block of society.  Disharmony and disorder in the family is an increasing threat facing our community and our nation.  We aim to build up families by strengthening and growing the faith of each individual member, so that each one of us understands and embraces his or her God-given role and responsibility within the family.
