Mission Statement
Mission Statement 2024-25
Our mission
The mission of Putney & Roehampton Methodist Churches, along with the wider Methodist Church, is to respond to the gospel of God’s love in Christ and to live out its discipleship in worship and mission.
Our Calling
The calling of our church is to pursue the mission of the wider Church, as set out in the Our Calling strategy: “to respond to the gospel of God’s love in Christ and to live out its discipleship in worship and mission”. In particular, to:
- increase the awareness of God’s presence and celebrate God’s love (Worship);
- help people to grow and learn as Christians, through mutual support and care (Learning and Caring);
- be a good neighbour to people in need and to challenge injustice (Service); and
- make more followers of Jesus Christ (Evangelism).
We seek to do this through the responsible stewardship and effective oversight of all our resources (human, financial and property). We also seek to fulfil all our responsibilities as required by the Methodist Church, the Charity Commission and all relevant regulations.
Our Vision
To share the Good News of Jesus Christ for all God’s people, offering a space to find peace, wholeness and community.
Our Priorities
We have agreed to continue the following over-arching priorities for the coming year:
- to continue to engage in new and exciting ways to bring the Gospel to our community, including the Springs dance production of ‘A Time to Mourn, A Time to Dance’.
- to press ahead with plans to redevelop the front of our building to make it more accessible and responsive to our needs.
- to promote an inclusive welcome to all God’s people.
- to enhance our work with children and young people.
