At Del Rey Church we are devoted to having the Bible as our foundation for life.  Thus, we obtain our core values directly from the Scripture. In the second chapter of the book of Acts, we read about the early church's beliefs and practices. From their model, we derive the below core values for our church’s priorities and philosophy.
