About Us

The name Olivet is based on Acts 1:6-12, when Jesus stands on Mount Olivet after His resurrection and talks to his disciples before He and ascends into heaven. At that time, Jesus tells the disciples that they "will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." 

In order to be a witness, we want to be a Church that makes disciples who make disciples who love God and love neighbor. We do that primarily through preaching and teaching the Bible, and through interacting with each other in love, as citizens of the kingdom of God. As Ephesians 4:15 says, we are growing to be like Jesus in every way.
