Intergenerational

We aspire to bridge the generations in worship. This will stretch our congregation, since there is cultural pressure to divide ourselves according to age and/or likes and dislikes.

Blended Style

We are committed to using contemporary, traditional, alternative, and other musical expressions. At the same time, it is not possible to honour all ages and musical expressions every Sunday.

Relevant

While we will seek to be blended we intend to design our worship format in such a way that there is a strong appeal to the younger generation, as well as the non-churched. It becomes necessary for each generation to make way for the church of the future and each age group must learn to sacrifice its preferred worship style with the goal of reaching those who walk to a different beat.

Integrates Tradition

We believe it is possible to use tradition in a culturally relevant way. Emphasis on a relevant style does not mean abandoning our roots or the contributions of the church through the ages.

Participatory

We are called to participate with our total being — loving God with our heart (emotionally), soul (spiritually), mind (mentally), and strength (physically). We will seek to provide a worship environment that encourages freedom of expression while guarding against using external forms as a measure of spiritual maturity.
