St.
Mary's Wollaston belongs to a group of four church's just south of
Wellingborough in Northamptonshire. All are trying to operate with
the following four values which flow through all we do:
Bible Based As
a church we are orthodox in doctrine and morality. We view the Bible
as God's unique message to the world pointing to the significance
of the person of Jesus Christ.
Open
to the Holy Spirit We
are open to the renewing work of the Holy Spirit in our personal
lives and in the life of corporate worship
Prayer Centred We
are seeking to develop a dependence on God in our personal lives and
in our church life.
Generous In
all we do we want to be generous. Generous in our relationships, and
with our resources.
The
vision for St. Mary's, Wollaston is:
"a church where
all ages are welcome. Where people can be themselves and find
acceptance, salvation, healing and hope. Where there is practical
concern for the poor and disadvantaged. Where the worship is
passionate, joyous and seeking intimacy with God. Where people build
friendships and feel their skills and talents are used. A church that
feels it is on an adventure as it seeks to follow the living God."
Over
the next couple of years, the church has two main priorities as we
continue to move towards this vision:
The
reordering of the building
Discipleship
