I will take you from the nations, and gather you from all the countries…I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean ….A new heart I will give you, and a new spirit I will put within you; and I will remove from your body the heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. I will put my spirit within you, and make you follow my statutes and be careful to observe my ordinances. Then you shall live in the land … and you shall be my people, and I will be your God. Ezekiel 36:24ff
We TELL others the Good News of the Kingdom. We are a visible and active presence of God’s kingdom. The most obvious starting points are the Sunday Eucharist with worship and preaching, where we welcome newcomers. Throughout the week Monday-Friday: praise, prayer and bible study starts the day at 0915. We hold our community in prayer and examine God’s word to understand the times in which we live. We also hold Services responding to community events: including wedding, funeral, Remembrance etc.We TEACH. We Teach by explaining, and including the whole gospel. Our largest project is Ark All Saints Secondary school for 600 pupils from the neighbourhood. Our priest has a joint Chaplaincy role, ensuring Christian ethos, regular daily prayer, and use of Bible in school worship and practice. People come to us for Baptism. We have also an annual programme training parish youth workers for this part of the Diocese. Finally we organise events for our young people.We TEND: that means we respond to human need by loving service. What does this mean in practice? We listen to the stories of the parish. We work with others to ensure a Mother and Toddler group and associated MumSpace activities on site each week. We support the voices of local organisations, particularly Tenants and Residents, in expressing need to make-it-happen organisations, including Southwark Council. We have a project with Dulwich College Mission Trust to rebuild the Hollington Youth Centre and renew its work with young people and others in the parish. (We are trying to restart a long dead Scout Group as part of that, if you’d lie to volunteer.) We provide support and space for groups to meet, and public and voluntary services to make a difference in our parish.We TRANSFORM. We seek to transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and to pursue peace and reconciliation. That means that we have been focused on listening to the conversations about violence against young people this year and looking for practical acts that will make a difference. We act and speak in public for justice and peace. We welcome the strangers. Stand with people who are vulnerable because of their nationality status. We feed and clothe the poor. Provide basic needs by supporting expert organisation partners (Kairos, Pecan). We bring peace; working with the police and Local Authority to challenge the violence that arises in our neighbourhood. We are proud of a good relationship with Wyndham Road mosque.We TREASURE God’s world. We strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth. In a garden of building waste and tarmac we grow fruits and flowers as a haven for people who live in flats. We use a well-insulated modern building that uses energy efficiently.Is this your way of living too? Come and join in.
