We value mercy and justice initiatives as a church, because God loves people and has commissioned us to be agents of change in our context. We want to be actively involved in our city so that more Joburgers can love, follow and enjoy Jesus.
Our value of renewal: The renewal of all things is God’s ultimate aim. As God’s redeemed people we are agents of renewal in this city that serve as a foretaste of what is to come. We do that by redemptively engaging the city and working to see spiritual, social and cultural renewal.
