Our mission and vision (Vol 2 No 70)
As we contemplate our mission,
As we look beyond today,
As we try to live our vision,
Follow Jesus in his way;
In our fellowship we treasure
All the gifts and skills we share;
As we live and grow together
Christ is honored when we care.
When we gather we would welcome
All who wish to join our cause;
Human bound’ries have no power;
We fling open all our doors.
With a harmony of purpose
Which transcends both class and race,
We proclaim the life of Jesus
And bear witness to God’s grace.
Reconciliation happens
In communities of care;
Lives transform and people alter,
Destinies can change with prayer;
As we open to God’s leading
We can feel the Spirit move;
Ancient truths and new awareness
Give us challenge to improve.
We are salt to give a flavor,
And a light upon a stand;
We are set upon a hilltop
And are seen throughout the land;
So our love must be inclusive
Given fully, given free;
For the Lord whom we all follow
Shows what love can do and be.
