General Info

Grace At the center of the Christian faith is the good news that God has acted to make us right with him and bring hope for this world when we could not do it ourselves. Through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, God reconciles people to himself and sets in motion the restoration of all things. The good news of God's grace is the point of entry and power for each day of the Christian life. Whole Persons Jesus’ work of renewal begins at the center and works its way into every part of who we are. Our intellect, emotions, behaviors, and bodies are all scenes of God’s redemption. Our work, play, hobbies, families, friendships, and cultural engagement are all spheres in which our faith in integrated. Instead of layers and fractures, a public and private self the Christian is whole and free, deepening in grasp of faith and engaging all of life through the framework of faith. Friendship A Jesus called his followers friends and in the Christian church a new relational world emerges because the Holy Spirit unites a diverse group of people through our common savior. In Jesus a new family begins in which all of life is reoriented by good news of God’s action. Instead of running from people or using them, we form communities of mutual care to reflect God’s love and grasp it more deeply. Beyond Ourselves Jesus generous love creates a community that looks beyond its own interests. We strive be a church for our friends, family’s, neighbors and associates who do not know Christ. We also seek to be a church that has a particular concern for the poor and marginalized. In the way we worship, serve, talk and live the church is shaped to care for and include those on the fringes of faith or society. This outward thrust has two particular emphases that drive our mission. The City God has called us to Worcester. We learn from the city, love the city and as a church seek to reflect its wonderful diversity, ethic of hard work, intellectual engagement, and historic roots. Rather than building a reputation or name for ourselves we work towards a great city and commit ourselves to its good. With wisdom we celebrate Worcester’s strengths and care for its hurts. We partner with many for peace and prosperity of the place so many call home. Multiplication One is never enough. Only through a variety of leaders, ministries, and churches can we reflect God’s rich love for Worcester and this world. Following Jesus’ example we embrace a developmental mindset, continually training, releasing, and supporting a variety of people, initiatives and institutions to to serve Worcester and pursue God’s renewing work in the region and the world beyond.
