"God's intention for each of us is that we should grow to the point where he can empower us to do what we want - then he can turn us loose on the universe!"  Dallas Willard


 "Do not worry about tomorrow. I have come that you might have life abundantly. Be not afraid."

What We Believe at FaithWorks

Watch this space for more content coming soon.

In the meanwhile, here are our values and beliefs, and feel free to read our FaithWorks Covenant.

Purpose
Faithworks is an intergenerational group of people committed to being a gift to, and meeting needs within the River Heights community (and the communities in which people live and work) through practical service and spiritual formation. This church exists to serve the community in the name of Jesus.

Objectives
1. Practical Service: As a faith community, identifying and meeting needs within the River Heights community. Our focus will be on community needs not presently being addressed by other agencies. We also encourage people to get involved in the communities in which they live, being the church as part of their daily lives.
2. Spiritual Formation: Recognizing that every person is on a journey towards God, our aim is to facilitate that journey by living our lives in the community as followers of Jesus, through teaching, worship, modeling and discipleship.

Values
Growing:  Looking more like God, our Father, every day.
Authentic:  Being who we are (Children of God, followers of Jesus, empowered by the Holy Spirit).
Inviting:  Helping each other take next steps towards Jesus.
Serving:  Putting our love for people into action.
Safety:  Providing a save place for everyone.
Intentional:  Acting strategically, consistent with our purpose.
Flexible:  Refusing to grow stagnant.
Reproducing:  Growing through mentoring - no one walks alone.
