Fundamental to who we are as a church and a staff team is prayer. We base this value off of Matthew 21:13 where Christ states, "It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer.’" At WoodsEdge, we seek God first for everything we do. We set aside every Tuesday to pray together as a staff team and dedicate our Wednesday evening service to prayer and worship.
"Outside the walls" is a term that encompasses our desire to look beyond the walls of the church into the neighborhoods, communities, cities and nations beyond. Wrapped up in that simple phrase are the principles of missions, discipleship, and service to all people.

As a staff team, we try to find intentional ways to grow deeper in our connection with each other through planned staff events, retreats, and fun days.
