Vision & Mission

Lord, may we be a church with a vision for a mission which has compassion for all people across the boundaries of faith, race and culture...

OUR MISSION....

"......to be a church that crosses the boundaries of race and culture to share good news with the poor in spirit; seeks freedom for the captives of poverty and prosperity; can give new vision to the blind; will help release people who feel oppressed and recognises that the time has come for the healing of the nations."  

                                     Adapted from Luke 4: 18-19

OUR VISION.....

".......to bear good fruit with the church as a branch of the True Vine and with God the Gardener who prunes our faith."

                                     From John 15

OUR PRAYER.....

"Lord, may our church be a branch of Your True Vine with You as our Gardener who prunes our faith so that we may become the good fruit through which people of all faiths, races and cultures may be touched by your love. Amen."

OUR MINISTRY.....

To be healing hands; to be listening ears; to speak healing words; to be a place of healing; to be a people who heal through our faith in Christ the Healer......

We are working together for the Kingdom where God will wipe away every tear from our eyes; where there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain and the wounds of history will be healed.    (from Revelation 21:4)

Healing is therefore integral to our mission, vision and ministry.....
