Spiritual Growth & Care
"My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you…" [Galatians 4:19]
We want to see all of our church community transformed, having the character of Christ formed in us. Spiritual Growth is one of our core commitments. You can read more in our "values" section.
- Pastoral Care: We recognise that life can have many hurts and disappointments. We need others to help us process these knocks. Mostly, good friends and a community around us can create the right environment for our growth. Sometimes, however, talking to someone else is helpful – this kind of pastoral care is available with Community Church.
- Counselling: – At other times, the knocks affect us so much, that we need to skilled helpers to walk with us, to untangle ourselves and find restoration and healing. We have a counselling service who offer this kind of help.
- Prayer Ministry: We also recognise the value of prayer ministry. We believe in a God who is with us, and can help, in the midst of the circumstances of life. Having someone pray for us, and standing with us, can bring real change and healing.
- Spiritual Direction: However, often, we are growing and developing healthily, but would value someone who would offer some kind of mentoring or spiritual direction, to promote that growth especially in our relationship with God.
All of this and more is on offer in Community Church.
