A Mission Statement
As a people journeying together we affirm our calling under God:

  • To preach Christ the risen crucified one and confess him as Lord.

  • To bear witness to the unity of faith and life in Christ, rising above cultural, economic, national and racial boundaries.

  • To engage in fearless prophetic ministry in relation to social evils which deny God's active will for justice and peace.

  • To act with God alongside the oppressed, the hurt, the poor.

  • To accept responsibility for the wise use and conservation of the finite resources of this earth for the benefit of all.

  • To recognise, treasure and use gifts of the Spirit given to all God's people for ministering.

  • And to live a creative, adventurous life of faith, characterised by openness and flexibility, hope and joy.
