OUR VISION:

Jesus' ministry was defined by compassion, mercy, and justice to the marginalized, the outcasts and those who were hurting. As followers of Jesus, our task is to take up his mission in our world. Called to make disciples of all the nations; our first step toward faith is a ministry of caring for others.

We help others because Jesus would. We help others because we can and we care. We know people need a relationship with God like they need food, water and shelter. In caring, we know our faith is vibrant and worth sharing.

As relational beings, our work is towards reconciliation that restores human dignity. We relate to others as God relates to us: with compassion, mercy and justice. As we draw closer to God we naturally are naturally drawn closer to those who are hurting.

Let us come together as God's Kingdom agents; co-operatively sharing in the work of God. Let us take part in God's glorious future - the new Heaven and the new Earth - entering into our present world.
