2010: Renewing the Mission

The church where I minister does not have an official mission statement. Perhaps that is bad. A positive that comes is that I get to continually write possible mission statements that reflect who we are and what we are trying to become.
As I think about 2010, I have developed a new mission statement. Perhaps it will help us move a bit closer to the task God has before us.

We, a local body of Christ, part of the larger body of Christ, devote ourselves to doing the will of God as it is revealed in his infallible word, the Bible.
We exist to glorify God in our collective worship, to reach out to the lost with the gospel, and to build up one another in love.
Knowing that we are saved by grace through faith, every member is encouraged to use the talents given by God to serve others and to grow in faith toward God and his Son Jesus Christ.
