Our Core Values
Jesus Christ is the Lord, Redeemer and Saviour of the world.
The Bible is the final authority in all matters of faith and practice.
Intercessory prayer is essential for releasing God’s power.
Baptism in the Holy Spirit renews, heals and transforms lives and churches. The Holy Spirit enables repentance and growth in holiness.
Renewal leads to reconciliation, care and unity in the body. Renewal empowers the Church for evangelism and mission. Renewal seeks the transformation of communities as a sign of the coming Kingdom of God.
Giving and receiving across cultures is part of God’s precious resource in renewal and mission.
Effective ministry flows from a servant heart and through loving relationships.
