Background ... Our Mission Statement and Aims are intended to put us on a mission footing. The mission statement was agreed by Church Council on 22nd February, 2011, and at the same time we agreed to start putting money aside for a mission project. In the summer of 2011 we agreed to start the process to appoint a part-time paid children's and families' worker. The aims will ensure that we regularly review our mission statement and look at new and existing work to see if it meets the criteria set by our Mission Statement.
