Our Mission
|
Draw In,
|
Draw in
|
...to be a place where people are accepted and loved. A place where we do more than simply share a pew on Sunday mornings; a place where we share our lives together. A place where we get to know, care deeply and support one another through all of life’s ups and downs. (Mark 12:10, John 13:35, 1 Peter 4:8)
|
Grow up
|
...to be first and foremost committed and devoted to God. To be sincere worshipers, to be people of prayer, to be people who desire to grow up and mature in our knowledge and understanding of God, to be people who abide in the love, grace and mercy given to us through Jesus Christ and to be people who live lives that bring glory to God in what we say and in what we do. (Matthew 22:37-38, 1 Peter 2:2, Philippians 1:9-11)
|
Reach out
|
... to be a community that reaches out to others with gentleness and genuineness both in word and in deed. There are many people in our local community whom God wants us to reach out to and many that he desires to “draw in” to this committed caring Christian community as He calls them to “grow up” together with us in our relationship with Him. While our primary mission is local, God also calls us, as we are able, to support the wider global mission and outreach of the church, helping to bring the gospel of Christ to the “very ends of the earth." (Luke 15:4, Luke 19:10, 2 Corinthians 5:19, Matthew 28:19)
