- People becoming disciples through proclamation of the gospel with practical care;
Building up
- Every member growing in faith and godliness and pressing on towards the day of Christ’s return,
- Every member feeling that they belong to a church family that supports, encourages and cares for them, and to the Worldwide Church,
- Every member equipped to use their gifts to serve within the church and to share the Gospel in their daily lives;
Sending out
- Every member sent to live and speak for Jesus in their daily lives,
- People who leave St. Mary’s being ready to use their gifts to serve in their new churches,
- Members being sent to mission fields, both overseas and in the UK,
