Celebrate Christmas with us

Values

Our core values help to establish the culture of who we are and give meaning to all that we do.

Passion for God

We are hungry for the presence of God, to hear His voice, to follow Him and become more like Him.

Healing

We are always seeking to create an environment and practice of healing. We hope to see people experience spiritual, physical and emotional freedom and wholeness, as they spend time in God’s presence. People are healed and made whole by moving their attention from themselves onto Jesus. We place a high value on the Holy Spirit capturing people’s hearts and producing a change in them.

Power of the Holy Spirit

We want to live with a sense of expectancy and foster an environment of growth. Spiritual growth is a product of the initiating, empowering work of the Holy Spirit and of our active cooperation with Him. He engages our minds, wills and emotions and He expects us to respond.

Team

We believe in and seek to foster a very strong team focus and emphasis through the whole church.

Being Relevant

We aim to continually adapt to and embrace change to ensure we do not stagnate. The church is not an organisation but an organism, and we place high value on being the church rather than just going to it.

Doing the Stuff

We want to do the stuff that Jesus did and intentionally serve the needs of the city and its people. We want to be noticeable in this city. We want to be a light on a stand that shines truth and hope into Manchester.

Prayer

Prayer is at the heart of all we do as we actively communicate with God and express our thankfulness to Him.

The Individual

All people matter to God, so all people matter to us! We want to be people who extend grace and mercy to each other. We are committed to nurturing an atmosphere of mutual acceptance, open communication and trust, which encourages each person to work towards their full potential in Jesus. We want to create opportunities and a community that is open to anyone, whatever their past, wherever they are at in their journey of considering or pursuing Jesus.

Healthy Relationships

We want to build a community that develops open, honest and genuine relationships, enabling us to support each other as we seek to be more like Jesus.

Community

We believe an aspect of our role is to teach, train, equip and model how family members participate and how healthy families function. Church is not just a place to attend but it is a community to be part of. God has called us to be a multi-generational and multicultural church with a specific focus on reaching the emerging generation.

Servant Leadership

Jesus came to serve, not to be served. We believe that the things our leaders model will be reproduced among the community and we long for that to be serving and preferring others. We see leadership as functional rather than positional.

Everybody Gets to Play

We believe that everybody who follows Jesus gets to participate in the Kingdom work! This is a place to come and try things, to have a go and to take some risks. This doesn’t necessarily mean that everybody can do everything, or would even be best at everything, but instead that Jesus intended for us all to be active participants.
