Forward Church Basics - The Vision

"We Are A Church That Moves Forward" is a poem that states not where we are now, but what we are about, what we're working towards, and where we will be in the future in Jesus' Name.

We Are A Church That Moves Forward

We are a church that moves forward – a church that stands united in love, in vision and in deed, with Christ at the very center of who we are and what we do. Christ is our Foundation, the Holy Spirit is our Guide and nothing will overcome or prevail against us.

We are a church that moves forward – a church whose growth is too difficult for buildings to contain, as the message of the Gospel daily invites individuals to repentance. We are a church so large that communities and cities cannot renounce our influence, cannot ignore our authenticity, and cannot deny our unyielding love for them.

We are a church that moves forward – a church that is so passionate about our Saviour that our heartfelt songs of praise and worship are outlived in our daily lives. These expressions of the heart demand extensions of our hands and are penned anthems for the generations of the world.

We are a church that moves forward – a church that serves and never stops serving. We are so committed to restoring the value of humanity that we will outwork justice and compassion to our neighbours in this community, this province, this nation and this world.

We are a church that moves forward – a church that is so relevant, creative and modern that together, using our individual talents and giftings, and with God, the ultimate Creator, we effect change in every sphere of culture.

We are a church that moves forward – a church that continuously builds up a stronger future, tirelessly investing into the next generation, raising up powerful, confident and world-changing young men and women.

We are a church that moves forward – a church that challenges its people to live a victorious life forward as they love God, love people and love life.

We are a church that moves forward – a church that is part of a Godly Kingdom, diligently working alongside a global community of believers to reach this world for Christ as we await the day our beautiful Jesus returns for His bride, His Church. We are part of something so much greater than ourselves and we are doing our part in this church – Forward Church.
