VALUES

Our values are like building blocks that underpin who we are and shape what we do and how we do it.

They are not exclusive to HCC, but do make us, us.

 

The values of HCC (not to be mistaken for our culture) are:

Gospel - Jesus is the only answer to the world's most fundamental problem, and relationship with God is only found in Jesus. We prize the Good News of Jesus' life, death and resurrection as the only hope for a world in need.

Family - We know that we all need to be saved individually, but believe that our walk with Jesus is meant to be worked out with others in family. It's our counter-cultural love for one another - despite our many differences - that puts God's love on display. 

Word - We treasure the Bible as God's inspired word. We believe that it is sufficient for all matters of teaching and training in righteousness, speaking powerfully and authoritatively today.

Spirit - We seek the empowering presence of the Holy Spirit for all aspects of Christian living, growth in Christlikeness and witness, and we seek the gifts of the Spirit for the good and growth of Jesus' Church. 

Prayer - We express our dependence on God through prayer, recognising our limitations but his unlimited power and his willingness to work through us. We prayerfully thank God for all that he has done, and seek his powerful working in the situations we - and the world - face.

Mission - We believe we have received the best news of all in Jesus, and that our response to this includes telling others. We see that as the responsibility of each member of HCC in their own life circumstances, in the local community and around the world in order to share the Good News of Jesus.

Kingdom - We want to see Jesus exalted and enjoyed all around the Parish and the globe, and will champion and cheer on anyone who is seeking to do that. Where there are others who share our heart that we can partner with, we'll gladly do so.
