In 2006, we worked with Vision Planners to identify what we believe to be God’s vision for The Tampa Bay Church in the ensuing five years. Through much prayer and guidance through the Holy Spirit, this is what we believe to be God's vision for our church in Tampa by January 1, 2011.
We are a diverse church of 800 disciples -- black, white, Hispanic, rich, poor, single, married, young, middle-aged, and elderly.
We are a family of believers – reaching Tampa Bay by house churches throughout the area.
We are strong campus, high school and middle school ministries that reach the youth and strengthen those reached.
We have vision to reach not only our community, but the world with a focus on Bolivia.
We are God’s church living in celebration of God's grace towards us.

Written from the future, in January, 2011, it describes all that God has done in The Tampa Bay Church in the past five years. We think you will find it inspiring to read. It is a beacon to us, reminding us of where we believe God wants us to be.)
