Christ Church exists to glorify Jesus
Jesus shows us a God who is amazing: creative, loving, powerful, fair and wise. To know him personally is the meaning of your life.
This God is worthy of all our trust and affection, but none of us treat him this way. The good news at the heart of Christianity is that Jesus came into this world to live the life we should have lived for us and then to die on the cross the death we deserve to die – all to enable us to come back into the relationship with God we were made for.
Jesus gave his all for us. So we now give our all for him.
Our mission is to make fruitful disciples for him
We want to help one another to grow in our relationship with Jesus: to grow in faith, love and hope. We long for this relationship in turn to bear fruit, making a difference to the world around us. And we want to help others also to encounter Jesus and learn to trust him.
To fulfil this mission, we have three particular strategies.
Strategy 1: We listen to Jesus
Jesus speaks to us through the Bible, as it is taught faithfully – and by his Spirit it is powerful to change lives. So we put the teaching of the Bible at the heart of everything we do.
Strategy 2: We love everyone
We want church to be great for every age and stage in faith, and we aim to foster rich and healthy relationships between us all. Whether you will be a part of Christ Church only for a year or so or for much longer, we are committed to caring for you.
Strategy 3: We work together
At Christ Church we try to foster a culture in which it is normal to take risks and make sacrifices for Jesus, and we us our ministry teams to train, equip and encourage one another into whatever service is right for each one of us.
