Our Vision

Our Vision

At St John’s we take our mission, vision, and values very seriously. Each of them has been developed through prayerful consideration and each of them informs how we act as a church.

  • Courageous in our Vulnerability
  • Renewed in our Hope
  • Surrendered in our Preference for One Another

Becoming more like Jesus

Our Values
(click each item for more info)

  • Inviting

‘Come and see,’ said Phillip’ (John 1:46)

An inviting culture is one in which everyone is invited to follow the one who has changed our lives. A culture in which all are challenged and equipped to be in the habit of saying ‘come with me’ ‘come and see’

  • Welcoming

Be inventive in hospitality’ (Romans 12:13(msg)

A welcoming culture is one that expects that visitors will be in the service. A church where we all welcome newcomers through our hospitality on Sunday and in our homes

  • Courageous

‘Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go’ (Joshua 1:9)

A courageous culture is one in which we take risks. A culture where we see problems as opportunities.
A culture where we try new things, learn from our mistakes and emerge stronger and wiser

  • Creative

‘(The Lord) has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, with intelligence, with knowledge, and with all craftsmanship, to devise artistic designs…’ (Exodus 35:30-33)

A creative culture is one that welcomes new ideas and allows for multi-sensory communication

  • Transforming

‘Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will’ (Romans 12:2)

A transforming culture is one that is open to the Spirit changing our lives and empowering us to change our community

  • Christ-Centred

‘And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit’ (2 Corinthians 3:18)

A Christ-centred culture is one that sees Christlikeness as our goal. A culture built on the life, death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus—called and sent out by him
