We believe that God is calling our Churches to:

• Live under the leadership of Jesus Christ as one body of people in congregations,

          institutions, schools and caring communities.

• Be a growing, inclusive Christian community, expecting and experiencing God’s

          miraculous and transforming power.

• Be a worshipping community, nourished and sustained by God’s grace received

          through his word and sacraments.

• Be a community, gifted in special ways by the Holy Spirit, accepting the call of

         Christ to discipleship, growing in spiritual maturity and personal witness.

• Be a servant community in the world.
