Who We Are

We care and We are:

 

People who love ‘one another’ and others:

There is a core need in most people to feel loved, valued and safe. As a church community, we endeavour to demonstrate by our actions sincere care, love, compassion, acceptance, respect and commitment to each other and the wider community.  As we care for “one another” scripture commands us to be devoted to one another (Romans 12:10), honour one another (Romans 12:10), live in harmony with one another (Romans 12:16; 1 Peter 3:8), accept one another (Romans 15:7), serve one another in love (Galatians 5:13), be kind and compassionate to one another (Ephesians 4:32), admonish one another (Colossians 3:16), encourage one another (1 Thessalonians 5:11; Hebrews 3:13), spur one another on toward love and good deeds (Hebrews 10:24), offer hospitality (1 Peter 4:9), and love one another (1 Peter 1:22; 1 John 3:11; 3:23; 4:7; 4:11-12). 

The Bible is our basis for all Christian preaching, teaching, service and is the final authority for living a successful Christian life.  2 Timothy 3:16-17James 1:23-25Hebrews 4:12

People with purpose and responsibility: 

Just as Jesus was sent by His Father into the world, so he expects those whom he has saved to ‘go out’ into the world. God has given the church a great commission to proclaim the Good News, the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all nations. Therefore, we have a responsibility to reach out to our communities. We are committed to making disciples of men and women through the sharing of our faith and vision.  We strive to grow and mature in our understanding of the Scriptures so that the eyes of our hearts will be enlightened, that we may know what is the hope to which God has called us, and what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints. Ephesians 1:18 Mark 16:15 18:14Matthew 28:18-20

The opportunities for and spheres of Christian influence are inside and outside the church service.  Jesus described his disciples as salt and light.  Likewise, we, as salt and light, must be prepared to be an influence wherever we go and in whatever we do.   Matthew 5:14-16

The Gospel of Jesus Christ and the grace of God is shared to bring man to the place of wholeness in spirit, soul and body – to a new life in Christ. Therefore, we seek to address the whole man at every level – individuals, families, etc.  Because of the transforming power of God to make all things new, we choose to see people in terms of who they were created to be. We love and care for hurting people not because of pity but because of God’s love and sending His Son to die for us all .  Matthew 25:40  John 3:16; 1 John 4:10
