 | Vision is something Helen Keller deemed essential to life, being more than mere existence. When asked what is worse than being blind she answered, 'to be able to see but have no vision.' Here at the church where the Bounce is in the House we have VISION |
We have dared to see beyond ourselves; beyond our life time; and beyond that which has gone before. Our declared Vision is to build: a church that loves people for who they are and inspires them to become all that they can be [listen to Vision Sunday presentation] | | | | We are building: Numerically to a strength where Stoke-on-Trent has to recognise our influence; Strategically to a standard where others will follow our model; and Generationally to the level that we are already planning succession 20 years from now | 2008 - The Year of Preparation This year we have taken Matthew 21:10 as our mandate. As a church we are committed to stirring our city to ask 'who is this Jesus?' We are 'championing Jesus & church for the 21st century'. | | | | Becoming a 21st Century City Church The first port of call is to become what we became when we were first called 'Bethel'. Genesis 28 tells of a certain place becoming an awesome place. Bethel City Church is a great place to be at the moment! |
