Our Mission

Sharing our faith in Jesus through lives lived in love.

What we do

• Try to live as Jesus’ disciples every day.

• Tell people about Jesus wherever we find them, in whatever way is most effective and meaningful to them.

• Teach people how they can live as Jesus’ followers showing his love.

• Practice Christian worship in all its forms to the glory of God and the blessing of individuals.

• Offer ourselves to the Holy Spirit as channels for his work of healing and reconciliation.

• Provide a Christian framework to help people navigate the challenges of life and its rites of passage.

How we do it

• Welcome everyone to engage with us in life and mission (evangelism, social concern and social justice) by living local, thinking global.

• Create a nurturing environment, where all may flourish, through open-handed love without discrimination as to background or personal circumstances.

• Exercise wisdom to protect the old, the young, the vulnerable and those experiencing times of crisis or special need.

• Actively engage with seekers after truth and people of other faiths (or none) to develop mutual understanding and an environment in which trust and respect allow love to flourish.

• Help people to understand and respond to the major ethical and moral challenges in life.

• Put our people and premises and finances to use in serving the practical and spiritual needs in our neighbourhoods.

• Facilitate the expression of worship in forms that are appropriate for different individuals and groups.

How we support it

• Create and sustain a community of Christians in the South Nottingham area.

• Provide a framework in which people are able to exercise their God-given gifts for the blessing of all.

• Share financial and property resources to provide the people and venues to serve our mission needs.

• Participate in the wider Christian network of the Methodist Connexion in order to give and receive support.

• Form formal and informal partnerships with other Christian groups.
