 | Our Vision We are called to be the church of Christ together. God gives us gifts to accomplish this call. We are not here by chance, but God through grace is shaping this community to embody and express the reign of God here in this place and in the world. | To respond faithfully to this calling, we will: - Pray for the Holy Spirit to work through us to witness to the redeeming love of God;
- Worship in ways that are faithful, creative, inspiring, diverse, and inclusive;
- Incorporate traditional, contemporary, and multicultural worship experiences;
- Explore the needs of our city and neighborhood and respond in faithful and appropriate ways;
- Encourage spiritual growth by studying and sharing God's word and its relevancy to life in this church, our neighborhood, and in the world, remaining true to our historical roots;
- Create vital, supportive, and transforming fellowship;
- Intentionally invite and be hospitable to those in our neighborhood who do not yet regularly attend any church;
- Responsibly use the time, talents and financial resources given to us by God; and
- Be Christ-like models and work with youth to commit to Christian life and service.
This vision statement is a living and evolving expression of the path we are on. We encourage you to give us your feedback on how it speaks to your personal vision. |
