Our Vision

"Our vision is that our congregations, commissioned and empowered by the Holy Spirit, will grow
as ambassadors of Christ’s reconciliation and to God’s world. (II Corinthians 5:1ff)
To enable this to happen, we envision that: Congregations will develop the resources and leadership
to support individual and collective ministry, and diocesan leaders will provide support to these ministries." 
(adopted by Diocesan Convention, 1994)
