Our Mission, Vision and Values
in july 2022, after a series of vision setting meetings, the pcc adopted the following as our mission, vision and values. Under god, we pray that these will shape the life of our church over the next few years.
Our mission is to be:
A community being transformed by, and transforming our neighbourhood with, the extraordinary love of Jesus.
Our Vision is to be:
A spiritually vibrant, thriving church which is growing in number and depth, where every member is being empowered to share the good news of Jesus in their life, in words and actions bringing transforming hope to the parish of St Mary Magdalene.
Our Values are:
Life is better together: we want to be a community where all are welcomed with generosity and love and mobilised to serve together.
Bible-believing and gospel proclaiming: the Bible is our supreme authority in matters of faith and conduct and will be at the heart of our life together.
Authenticity: we are seeking to build an unpretentious, non-judgmental community where everyone can be honest about the joys and struggles they encounter in life, and supported in them, and where differences are acknowledged and respected.
Partnership: we seek to work with other like-minded organisations and individuals, wherever possible, in working out our mission and vision.
