Our Vision

Our vision is summed up in 3 statements:

1. Living God's Word.  

"SEEING LIVES TRANSFORMED BY JESUS THROUGH PRAYERFUL DEVOTION TO HIS WORD”

Throughout every aspect of our church life, we seek to prayerfully immerse ourselves in the bible. This takes place in Sunday services, growth groups, mentoring, family life, and personal devotions. Our desire is not only for people to engage with Scripture intellectually but also to experience continual heart renewal through God’s life-giving Word.

2. Loving God's People.  

“GROWING A DEEPLY LOVING A N”

The gospel unites us, anchoring us in the truth of Jesus’s sacrifice for us. Since God saves us into a community, we continuously strive to deepen our relationships with one another. At the core of this is encouraging and equipping our members to serve our church family as they follow the servant King.

3. Reaching God's World.  

Jesus calls us to partner with him in seeing many people receive eternal life. We want to be part of this, seeing many of the thousands of people in our region experiencing new life and real hope in him. We also want to partner with those taking the good news of Jesus throughout the world

Our Values:

• We value above all else God the creator, sustainer, ruler and redeemer of all who is Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit. 
  
• We value the authority of the Bible. It is God’s word to us and central to all that we do. Therefore, we value accessible, biblical teaching that holds to the truth of the gospel.
  
• We value the gift of Prayer. It is vital to our relationship with God and essential to all that we do. We value time spent in private and public prayer praising God, thanking Him for all he has given us and humbly and confidently asking for Him to provide for all that we need.
  
• We value Leadership that is godly, approachable and who uphold gospel integrity.
  
• We value our Church Community. It is a genuine, diverse and loving group of brothers and sisters in Christ who enjoy spending time together in God’s word and caring for each other’s needs.
  
• We value our Youth and Children. They are precious gifts from God, and we partner with their parents to bring them up as followers of Jesus.
  
• We value Sunday Church where we can come as we are to praise and worship God. We value our time spent together hearing God’s word truthfully taught and responding through prayer and song.
  
• We value the Community of Young and, in connection with other churches, offer the hope of the gospel to everyone.
  
• We value all People and Nations and seek to share in the work of those who proclaim the gospel in Australia and overseas.
