Our Mission
Transformation remains, from beginning to end, a work of God's grace. We believe that - in the grace God gives us, abiding in Christ, and by the power of his Spirit - we are being called to push higher, wider, deeper and further:
Higher Expectation - a greater openness to the presence of God so that we are focused on the One ‘who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine’.
Wider Embrace - a fuller welcome to all who would come so that anyone can find their home among us and discover new life and hope in Christ.
Deeper Discipleship - a more profound rootedness in the good news of Jesus Christ so that we can be increasingly formed as his faithful followers in a changing world.
Further outreach - a more ambitious taking of the gospel beyond our walls so that all may know of God’s saving love for them.
