The Mission
Restoring True Humanity
You help them to return to normal operation.
What is normal for a human?
Being near God.
Humanity’s rehumanisation is directly connected to their relationship with God. When they are distant they wither, but when they are close, they flourish and live into who he made them to be.
The Vision
A community of restored people who know God, know who they are,
and flourish as the live into God's story.
This is the way God designed it. You weren’t made to become truly human on your own. No-one was. You need God and his family to help out.
God’s family helps us know God, know ourselves, and know our place in God’s epic story. Our flourishing as we live into his story is the evidence of the restoration of our true humanity.

We value honesty and wisdom in relationships.
We value God’s plan to restore humanity as a powerful motivator and contagion for evangelistic mission.
We value ongoing personal growth over the entire life span.
We value the personal ministry of God’s family, one to another, as the context in which humanity is restored.
