Welcome to the Witney Congregational Church
Crossroads
Witney Congregational Church is a crossroads where we:
Meet God in worship
Meet one another in friendship
Meet our community and world with the love of Jesus
Why does Witney Congregational Church consider itself a Crossroads?
It is our geographical location.
It describes our current ministry of people coming and going some stopping and staying.
It describes the encounter with Christ.. will we follow him or not.. we will choose the Way of the Cross..?
It describes an open community where we allow people to stop and stay, to pause and move on, or to simply pass through.
It describes a community of faith that allows people to approach faith from different directions with respect and common purpose.
Aspirations:
v In worship
Our church fellowship desires:
to be a living, growing congregation, open to people of al ages.
We long to enjoy:
inspiring meaningful Spirit=led worship inclusive of the various needs for each member and user-friendly for people coming in.
v In Christian Friendship
Our life together will reflect God’s love and grace:
through serving one another and those in our community and world.
v In outreach
We open our building to the community:
to be a place of prayer
and a base for varied activities.
We develop outreach into the community through school chaplaincy, nursing, home ministry and neighbourhood groups (e.g. exploring faith – Alpha or Emmaus, Pilots etc)
We commit ourselves to prayer and practical support:
of the Congregational Federation, Council for World Mission and other groups touching the world with the love of Christ.
