Vision
This is God’s world and we are His people. Together and in teams we serve a living God who has created all things, intervened in human history and is still active. Our mission through prayer and action is to serve our community with care and kindness so that everyone is accepted and welcomed, and to care for the environment and the wider world as we are able.
God calls us to courage in prayer and worship so that we can reach up to Him and He can shine into our church community.
Our Mission Action Plan and Team Structure are designed to support this vision in accordance with the Five Marks of Mission.
