The question that must guide all organizing activity in the parish is not how to keep people busy, but how to keep them from being so busy that they can no longer hear the voice of God who speaks in silence.

Henri Nouwen

To Grow A Worshipping Community

We desire to love God with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength.

We want to love our neighbour as ourselves and are committed to our community.

We want to be faithful and loyal to each other, believing the best about each other.

We want to be open and welcoming to all visitors and new members.

We want to be generous of spirit in words, attitudes, hospitality, time and finance.

We want to encourage creativity, passion and intimacy in our worship.

We want to be inspired by the Holy Spirit and follow His direction.

To Encourage, Empower and Train Disciples

We believe that we never stop learning and should never stop deepening our faith.

We want to be loving, open and honest in all our dealings with each other.

We seek to make ourselves accountable to each other.

We recognise that the life of a disciple involves discipline and want to help each other in this quest.

We seek wise counsel and instruction from those outside the community.

To Engage in Mission Through Networks

We believe that we are to GO into all the world.

We are committed to identifying the specific places and people to whom God is calling us to witness.

We want to support each other in the things to which God has called us, and will only take on projects that are owned by members of the community.

We are committed to going beyond our comfort zones and remaining in the place of challenge.

We recognise that encountering Jesus was the best thing that ever happened to us, and want to help others engage with Him.

We believe the good news is for “the poor” and want to ensure that we never lose sight of those who are less fortunate materially, physically, emotionally and spiritually than ourselves.

I have not kept this good news hidden in my heart;
       I have talked about your faithfulness and saving power.
    I have told everyone in the great assembly
       of your unfailing love and faithfulness.

Psalm 40v10
