MORE ABOUT MUSTARD SEED

Mustard Seed is a community based on an understanding that Jesus had a commitment to connect with those who find themselves in poverty and on the edges of society. Whenever we gather together, we seek to recognise that despite our differences we are all equal, created in the image of God. Although we are connected in our brokenness, we are all beloved children of God. We aspire to be a community where there is no ‘us’ and ‘them’, only ‘us’.

We come together with a shared aim of following Jesus; nurturing faith through spiritual formation and prayer, outward-looking service and justice, inclusivity and mutuality.

We celebrate community members’ gifts and try to make room for all to participate in whatever way they can - for example in joining our worship team, helping set up or take down, help lead a service or wherever else you feel called.

We strive to be a community of welcome and belonging; where trust is cultivated and where we can have courageous conversations.

We desire to be a place of safety for those who have experienced injustice or exclusion.

We aspire to incorporate prayer into everything we do.

MUSTARD SEED VALUES

KINDNESS

We see kindness as important in a world which can be difficult to navigate, providing an opportunity for second chances to be discovered

HOSPITALITY

We have seen the table at the centre of much of our life as a church. We believe that sharing food - along with space for conversation changes things positively

JUSTICE

We long for a kinder and fairer world. We desire a transformation of community where those who are facing or have faced injustice find a place and a voice

CREATIVITY

We strive to be creative in how we serve our community and neighbourhood. This is best seen by the different ways we celebrate in worship each week, and we invite you to come along to experience this

JOY

We have found hope in the person of Jesus, and want the joy of knowing Jesus to be at the very centre of all we do.
