To go in faith and in joy to tell the good news of God’s unconditional love for all people. To be in covenant relationships and covenant ministries: To love and care, to share and clothe, to feed and nurture, to counsel and teach, to be committed to the health and well being of the communities to which we serve.
We are called to be the living church, the body of Jesus Christ, beyond its walls. We will go in faith to minister in hospitals, prisons, homes, schools, the work-place, and places where people gather.
God will prepare our minds and souls to be His vessels, ever respectful andloving of others and ourselves.
We will be the salt of the earth and our lights will be the light of Christ. Our call from God is to be beacons of hope, to help the distressed, as we follow the model of Jesus. Our church homes are to be havens for those who need refuge. We shall step out boldly in courage to affect healing, renewal, opportunity, and hope. Our eyes will be open that we may see the needs of the people; our hearts and souls will be open that we may serve with dignity and peace. |
