We are a church of missional disciples seeking to love God and love each other; influencing our community, city, nation and world with the love of Jesus that we might see His Kingdom come.
In the next season we believe that God is calling us to invest in four particular areas:
ENCOUNTERING
We believe that God is calling Emmanuel to be a place of encounter. A church where people of all ages can encounter the true, living God. A church where we encounter each other as family.
RESTORING
We believe that God is calling Emmanuel to be a church where lives, marriages, families, church and community are restored. We long to be a church renewed in the power of the Holy Spirit where all people can experience love, hope and freedom.
DISCIPLING
We believe that God is calling Emmanuel to be church family where everyone is discipled in the way of Jesus. We long to be a church of missional disciples, living out a wholehearted, risk taking discipleship, shaping our lives and ministry on Jesus.
SENDING
We believe God is calling Emmanuel to be a sending church. A church that equips and sends us all as disciples of Jesus to bring God’s kingdom everywhere we go. We believe that God is calling us to be a storehouse which gives away what God has entrusted to us.
VALUES
We believe that God is calling us to be…
a church for our local community; focused on loving, serving and reaching those who don’t yet know Jesus especially younger generations.
a family of missional disciples who are bold and courageous, unafraid to take risks and step out in faith
willing to follow God’s leading and direction and to pay the price of being obedient to his call in the use of ourselves, our time and our resources
committed to the Word, the Spirit, worship and prayer.
