Mission Focus:
Mission reconfigures those on the peripheries as the center, as the privileged place to love and serve. This attempts to pattern God’s own activity: God migrated, tabernacled, tented among the people, and drew near unto becoming creation itself in a person who took the margins as his center. Christ’s longing for justice and peace compels our own.
For us, it matters how we construct a more just and peaceful world. We celebrate the holiness of everyday life, and we live the hope of resurrection. We live in poor communities not because they are broken or in need of our repair, but because they are holy. We serve not because life is broken, but because it is holy.
Motivation for Mission:
Mission reconfigures those on the peripheries as the center, as the privileged place to love and serve.
