This involves:being part of a community where members are cared for and grow in love and faith;engaging with the world to help others to discover a relationship with God.
These two elements shape our Parish-wide mission initiative, 'Going for Growth'.
Taking seriously our call to be God's people and deepening in our faithHelping others to grow in a relationship with God and to become part of the life of the churchWelcoming all people and sharing with them the good news of Jesus
A key element of Going for Growth is the Cycle of Growth which helps us to understand the journey into faith which each of us makes.
To learn more visit the Cycle of Growth page.
Going for Growth is about developing the faith of those who are already part of our worshipping community. To help in this process, an event called Fan the Flame was run for five weeks before Easter 2008.
The next stage in Going for Growth was the setting up of new House Groups, renamed Growth Groups, during Lent 2009. These groups worked through a common course in five parts.
Although Going for Growth is a new initiative, we are already seeing new and exciting things happening in the Parish.
However, Going for Growth is not simply about more activity and becoming busier people. If we are to grow in our own faith, each of us must be willing to make space for the new things which God has in store for us. Perhaps it is now time to begin to ask God where he wants to lead you on your journey of faith?
