Our Purpose
Our purpose here at SCOG is to be a healthy, life-giving church that is making a difference in our community. We want all people to experience the reality of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and the difference He can make in their life. Jesus gave His life for us and now we want to live our life for Him by serving Him, by doing the things He taught us to do, and by bringing glory and honor to His name.
