At the moment we are having a go at writing a vision statement following two years of work looking at our church, its resources, what we are good at (and not so good at) and how we can serve our community here in Bethnal Green
In the autumn we will be putting together a development plan based on the vision of our future which we believe God is calling us to.
This is what we have come up with so far…
Our Vision
To be part of God’s story in Bethnal Green
Worshipping and serving God
By:
- Creating a caring and sensitive community, modelling God’s love, inspired by the story of The Good Samaritan
(Mark 10:25 – 37)
- Being prepared to take risks to grow in our own faith and to reach out to others, inspired by The story of The parable of the Talents
(Matthew 25: 14 – 30)
- Living in celebration and expectation of God’s abundant life, inspired by the Story of The Wedding at Cana
(John 2: 1-10)
Living out our values
We are:
Centred in God
