Mission
Compassion for others and sharing the good news about Jesus are at the heart of our vision and values – and that commits us to mission.
And for us mission means action – using our time, money, gifts and skills to make a positive difference here and around the world.
We are involved in a number of partnerships and projects here in Edinburgh, around the UK, and in other parts of the world, notably in Kenya, Pakistan, Rwanda and South Africa.
Some of our partners are former members of our church community, and increasingly we are sending out teams of people to get hands-on experience of the projects we’re involved with, to learn, to share, to teach and to pray.
The links in the right hand side bar reveal where we are making a difference – and there are opportunities to get involved yourself, particularly with the Care Van & Shelter, the Hope weekends and our Community activities.
