Mission Statement

 

Sharing God's Love in Concord and beyond


We, the people of the Concord Uniting Church, are called to be the fellowship of Christ's people,
created, and sustained by God, for mission in the power of the Holy Spirit.

To fulfil the Mission Statement set before our Congregation we will seek to accomplish the following goals.

Goals

1. To support one another through individual pastoral care in Christ.

All members should exercise their unique gifts given by God for the fulfilment of particular functions in the life of the church. In ordering the church life and its members' different gifts in obedience to God, the church recognises that God always deals personally with people. We should care for one another at all times in practical and spiritual ways.

2. To assist all people, young and old, to enter into a more faithful relationship with God through worship services.

Our activities in the Church will be for nothing if the Church is not itself a worshipping community. We will place worship service at the centre of all Congregational activities. We will endeavour to encourage our youth and young families in and beyond our Congregation to join our worship services.

3. To speak and act within the wider community.

The church is becoming marginalised in our society, losing its traditional roles for the wider community. It must reaffirm the good and true, denounce injustice and oppression and, with compassion, care for people in their need. To this goal, our Church should work together with other local Churches to serve the people beyond our Congregation and to bring a Christian perspective to community issues.

4. To study the Bible and be prepared to proclaim the Word.

The Bible has a special place as the source of challenge and nourishment to Christians, as the main source of the church's preaching, and as authority and guidance for living. All members are urged to study the Bible and prayerfully meditate on the lectionary readings for the Sunday worship service.
