Our Vision

Let me share with you the vision we have for the people of God's Church here in Greenside:

God's people with all their individual God given gifts working together in unity with one purpose of Growing God’s Kingdom

A people who love Jesus and His teaching so much, that they can do nothing else but reflect His image in their lives, living selflessly for the Gospel of love and truth.

A people who are willing to live and give sacrificially for the wider good of Growing God’s Kingdom.

A Church where pettiness has ceased, and where gossip and jealousy has been eradicated.

A people who support and encourage one another and their God given gifts.

A Church who will not be embarrassed in talking about Jesus openly, and welcoming people from all walks of life.

The Church buildings of St John’s Church and the Church of the Holy Spirit filled with worshippers of all ages and nationalities and backgrounds.

A church, truly reflective of the Church that Jesus left upon this earth.

A church, that is open to the presence of God's Kingdom manifesting itself upon this earth.

A church, where people are growing deeper in love and itimacy with Jesus!

Would you like to join us in this exciting vision? You are welcome in the name of our Lord Jesus.
