Organic churches reproducing faithful disciples

About

Things like vision statements and mission statements may seem a little corporate especially for a simple church ministry.  We put our thinking in this format so that conventional church folks can get a good idea where we are coming from.  What is written here is part of the early game plan which will evolve over time. 

Mission Statement:

Organic churches reproducing faithful disciples

Our Vision:

To foster a discipleship movement through the power and wisdom of the Holy Spirit resulting in an ever growing network of organic churches  starting in Saskatoon reaching to the ends of the earth.  These disciples will seek to incarnate the gospel of Jesus Christ among various people groups with a special focus on sub-cultures more likely to be reached through non-traditional approaches.  In our approach we see leaders reproducing leaders,  churches reproducing churches and disciples reproducing disciples.  Our ultimate purpose is to be active participants, together with all of the saints, in the expansion of the Kingdom of God to the glory of the Father.

We believe

   1. In proclaiming the kingdom of God and good news of Christ’s life, death, resurrection and return
   2. The scriptures are authoritative and best understood with a reliance on the Holy Spirit in the context of community
   3. In going to and being with the people we intend to reach with the gospel and incarnating the life and love of Jesus
   4. That every member is a minister and should be given opportunity to discover and exercise their gifts without restrictions
   5. That the most effective ministry is found in the context of trusting relationships
   6. In equipping people inside the local church for ministry
   7. In raising the bar on discipleship – in continuous growth in discipleship
   8. In an intentionally simple approach to church
