Mission Vision
Our mission is to serve God in our community. We seek to do this by being an affirming church,
which offers the love of God to everyone regardless of age, race, gender or sexual orientation, through
care, worship and service.
Worship
Our worship aims to be open and inclusive, celebrating God's saving love expressed through Jesus in
a wide variety of ways. All are welcomed at Christ's table to share in bread and wine, and we
try to offer ways to approach God which will be appropriate for every age.
Pastoral Care
We try to care for all who are part of our church family through a system of pastoral carers
and seek to extend that care into the community to all who express a need to meet God through
Christian care.
Christian Education and Faith Building
We seek to offer opportunities to everyone of all ages to expand their Christian understanding and
deepen their faith through Sunday Club for children and through fellowship groups, house groups,
prayer meetings and prayer partnering for young people and adults. Moreover, we recognise that
faith building happens in many ways so we are also committed to using arts and crafts, music and
literature in ways which encourage human growth.
Community Service
We are committed to serving the community in whatever ways are needed. We are prepared to
offer our building, our love, our energy, and our prayers to those who are in need.
Expanding God's Kingdom
We are committed to building a world which is just, fair, peaceful and compassionate, and to
leading other people to faith in God.
Equal Opportunities Statement
Dorset Gardens Methodist Church is an inclusive church.
All are welcomed regardless of age, gender, race or sexual orientation.
