“we strive to be Christ’s ambassadors in all areas of life, working to reconcile all peoples back to God​.” (2 Corinthians 5:20)

We continue on our journey of living out our identity as Christ ambassadors. At the heart and head level of being an ambassador is the route of being a disciple of Christ – following Jesus and his teachings. At the hands and feet level of being an ambassador is the prospect of doing good deeds and bringing good news. All together this is a tumultuous task, and we could become easily overwhelmed! But our love for God and our love for others keeps us motivated, and God’s Spirit within us (Immanuel) keeps us encouraged.

W​e came up with an acronym to help us remember to be a blessing; B.L.E.S.S.

• Be in Conversation with God, daily.
• Learn to follow Jesus and obey his teachings.
• Eat with friends and strangers alike.
• Share the resources God has given you with those in need.
• Speak encouragement into the lives of others.

​We seek to remember BLESS in our everyday lives while we ​live out the original vision statement and pursue the goal that lies within – that of being Active Ambassadors. We want to live out of our identity as Christ ambassadors and discover anew that we are blessed to be a blessing; that we are loved by God (blessed) to love our neighbours (blessing). Join us as we continue to walk in the footsteps of our Saviour; learning to be the full stature of Christ.

Come for the messages, stay for the community!
