Meet Forest Hills

OUR VISION

To be the presence of Jesus Christ in the Raleigh Area.

OUR MISSION

To be a passionate, international, intergenerational community, building deeply devoted disciples of Jesus Christ.

OUR PRIORITIES

Life Transformation

We are followers of Jesus Christ on a journey of holistic transformation and thus, we are committed to Christ-like living in all aspects of life. (Romans 12:1-2)


Purposeful Missions and Service

As the body of Christ, we are called to join in God’s mission of love to a world in need by putting that love into purposeful and sustainable action.
(Ephesians 2:10)


Nurturing Faith in Future Generations

We disciple the next generation of Jesus’ followers so they can live the gospel into the future of an uncertain world. (2 Timothy 2:2)


Building Christ-centered Community

We are a community patterned after the life of Christ and led by the Spirit to embody the love of God to each other and those around us. (Romans 15:5-7)


Bold Hospitality

We intentionally work to create a community of belonging through the practice of radical hospitality to everyone who seeks it. (Hebrews 13:2)
