FSC Mission and Values
I've been poking around the idea of creating a set of Value Statements to add to our Mission statement slogan: Gather, Grow, Go. Values tell what is most important to us. During my sabbatical I finally summarized them, and the Elder Board approved them at our retreat. Here is a sneak peak if you are interested. I'd love your input before I post to our website.
GATHER:
Community is our heart:
The Christian life is best lived in community. We foster small groups where lives connect and flourish in unity. Heb. 10:24-25
Grace is our gift!
We choose to embrace grace and handle conflicts biblically because God’s boundless grace has overflowed to us first. Rom. 5:8
GROW:
Jesus is our message
The purpose of FS Church is to share the hope of Jesus that “grows” people into His image. John 14:6
Worship and Prayer is our path
FSC will be a house of prayer and we will have hearts of worship. Matthew 6:9-13
GO:
Serving others is our desire
Life is found in serving others as an act of worship. Mark 10:35
Generosity is our privilege
We give of our time, talents and treasure out of gratitude. 2 Cor. 9:7
Passion is our pursuit
In everything, we go "all in" with excellence for Jesus, for people, and for His church. Col. 3:23
Joy is our blessing.
We celebrate and have fun! Ps. 16:11; Heb. 1:9
