We want to help every person in our diocese to explore their relationship with Jesus Christ and flourish as His disciples. Our vision of ‘feeding our faith’ includes all ages, backgrounds and contexts.
Discipleship
To live as followers of Jesus we seek to know Him, to understand His teachings and to demonstrate His love to all – and we are here to help everyone in the diocese to do that together.
Whole of Life
“we spend 95% of our lives outside of church and out in society”.
(https://www.churchofengland.org/faith-life/vocations/explore-ministries)
“If every Christian was equipped to live their whole life as Jesus would, it would change the world – one place, task, and person at a time.”
(LICC: https://licc.org.uk/about/#what-we-do)
The whole of life is from the cradle to the grave – so is inclusive of all ages from the youngest to the oldest. It includes all stages of our faith journey too.
