In the power of Christ we work for the healing and salvation of the world (Hope)

Vision

The desired outcomes of our ministry
Let us dream of a church
Where people experience God rather than simply experiencing church;
Where people find joy in their faith;
Where people continue to grow in their love of God, one another and God?s creation.
A Church where people grow in faith
A Church where people care for each other with the love of Christ
A Church where people worship faithfully and joyfully
A Church where people are eager to share God's Good News with others
A Church where people continue to learn throughout their lives
A Church with leadership that empowers others to be disciples
