Our Mission

We believe God’s mission for the whole Church is to be the the Body of Christ, joining God in the redemptive work of restoring all people (creation) back to unity with God and each other.

We join God actively as a community of Faith, Formation and Fruitfulness. The chart below is a “picture” of our mission.
