Heywood Baptist Church Values

Heywood Baptist Church is a community of people whom Jesus calls to follow him in nurturing and becoming:-

a prophetic community - where together we work for justice and truth, and challenge the abuse of power.
an inclusive community - where together we pull down walls of prejudice and welcome the stranger among us.
a sacrificial community - where together we risk uncertainty and vulnerability, to reflect the life-giving generosity of God.
a missionary community - where together we demonstrate in word and action the redeeming love of God in the world.
a worshipping community - where together we seek and celebrate the God who journeys with us, and are open to the Spirit in the whole of life.
an equipping community - where together we encourage children, women and men to develop to the fullness of their God-given potential.
a compassionate community - where together we respond to people in their need, revealing God's mercy and tenderness for each person.

We also have a statement of faith for those who prefer theology!
