Warwick Road United Reformed Church


ACTIVITIES

The activities of our church are classified using the five marks of mission:

TELL
to proclaim the good news of the kingdom

TEACH
to teach, baptise and nurture new believers

TEND
to respond to human need by loving service

TRANSFORM
to seek to transform unjust structures of society

TREASURE
to strive to safeguard the integrity of creation, to sustain and renew the life of the earth.

They were first formulated by the Lambeth Conference of 1988 and then endorsed in their present form in 1997 by the Forum of Churches Together in England, and by the Growing Up Report of the United Reformed Church in 1999.

Sometimes an activity covers more than one mark of mission. For example, the Junior Church is included under tell, teach and tend. Activities concerned with maintaining church buildings and the provision of equipment are included under facilities.
