This means that we we support each other in loving God, each other, and all of God’s creation better.
We believe the best about each other and hold space for brokenness.
We are attentive to mystery as we recognize that God is moving and working in the midst of that brokenness.
We long to speak truth, hope and light where we find lies, hopelessness and darkness.
So, we listen for the Spirit at work in our community, confront the illusions of culture, and confess how it has shaped us.
We care for our neighbourhood, our networks, and the poor. We endeavour to live life with the marginalized, and we love beyond our borders, stepping into a life beyond “myself”.
Though we are many, we are one body in union with Christ (Romans 12:5.)
We are all in this together so we encourage one another to develop and use our gifts and passions as we follow Jesus.
We invite all to serve in mission as part of the Body of Christ.
We gather for worship, pray, share meals, serve, and offer confession. We will break bread together as we rejoice, and suffer through life’s joys and pains.
As a church seeking to be without walls, we want to be defined by our centre or focus, and not a set of boundaries.
Our centre is Jesus Christ.
There is no “them” and “us”. There is just one big “us”.
Fellow sinners, who were created in the image of God, simply wanting to know Jesus and see the reign of God break into our lives.
