KEYNSHAM METHODIST CHURCH

20:20 VISION STATEMENT

KMC exists to demonstrate God’s love to all those we meet and serve. By 20:20 we will become a younger, larger, growing, more inclusive, more active community of God’s people.

Stepping out in faith, we will:

• offer a wider variety of worship styles and experiences

(by listening to those whose worship needs are not currently being met and acting upon their hopes and dreams)

• support initiatives that reach out into the local community

(including supporting linked groups such as Pre-School, Toddlers, Churches Together in Keynsham & Saltford (CTKS) projects, CAMEO (Come And Meet Each Other), fellowship groups)

• develop a deeper, more confident life of prayer across the church community

(by identifying and encouraging prayer times with a specific focus and by extending the links between the prayer table and The Hub)

• strive for a fairer, greener world

(by expanding our mission projects, becoming a Fairtrade church, and becoming an Eco congregation)

• involve everyone in the work of welcoming and pastoral care

(by teaching that everyone has a role to play in this work and by examining new ways to support the large network of care already in existence)

• make more followers of Jesus Christ

(by being bolder in sharing our faith stories and by engaging in a 12 month cycle of opportunities for exploring Christian faith and nurture)
