Our Mission, Our Vision and Our Values

Vision

The vision we’re working towards is for the BC CRCs to become more vibrant, whole-hearted communities of Christian worship, discipleship, and mission

Mission

Spurred on by this vibrant, urgent vision of renewal that has been noted by both classes, we take up a mission to connect individuals, congregations, and the broader community to a curated curriculum of resources and gatherings that:

  • Brings coherence and depth to existing local, classical, denominational, and ecumenical resources
  • Encourages the theological reflection, leadership, and faith-filled practice needed for this moment
  • Encompasses the five callings of ministry of the CRC: Faith Formation, Global Mission, Mercy and Justice, Servant leadership, and Gospel Proclamation and Worship

Values

In all of our curating, connecting & collaborating, we aim to embody:

  • Prayerful dependence on the in-dwelling Trinity
  • Hospitable space, hospitable pace
  • Authentic, charitable conversations, and story-sharing
  • Holistic learning in community through action and reflection
  • Timely theological reflection with a Reformed accent
  • Covenantal relationships with classis and denomination

I can think of no more stirring and energizing time in which to live the Christian life. Bon voyage!
