STATEMENT OF FAITH AND BELIEFS

"A Church With a Purpose"

To train an army of people who know who they are in Christ
and the Christ within, to take this city and nation for Jesus.

The Vision

To be a centre of mercy, love and compassion; a "mercy ship"
Providing refuge and shelter to those in need.
To be a centre of teaching, training and discipling,
providing many diverse ways for people to come
and receive from the Spirit of God
and to grow strong in faith and the Word of God.
To have a team of faithful, committed people
Who are strong in love, prayer, the Word, the Spirit and faith.

The Word

Is this not the fast that I have chosen:
To loose the bonds of wickedness,
To undo the heavy burdens,
To let the oppressed go free,
and that you break every yoke?
Is it not to share your bread with the hungry,
and that you bring to your house
the poor who are cast out:
When you see the naked, that you cover him,
and hide not yourself from your own flesh?

Then shall your light break forth like the morning,
Your healing shall spring forth speedily,
And your righteousness shall go before you;
The glory of the LORD shall be your rear guard.
Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer;
You shall cry, and He will say, "Here I am".
If you take away the yoke from your midst,
the pointing of the finger, and speaking wickedness,
if you extend your soul to the hungry
and satisfy the afflicted soul,
then your light shall dawn in the darkness,
and your darkness shall be as the noonday.

The LORD will guide you continually,
and satisfy your soul in drought.
and strengthen your bones;
You shall be alike a watered garden,
and like a spring of water, whose waters do no fail.
Those from among you
shall build the old waste places;
You shall raise up the foundations of many generations;
And you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach,
The Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.
Isaiah 58:6-12
