Our Mission

Western Hills Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) is a community of persons whose hope for salvation for ourselves and the world rests in our faith in God as revealed in the life and teachings of Jesus Christ.

Finding unity within our diversity, sharing in the faith and resources of the Body of Christ and inspired by the Holy Spirit, we declare our mission to be to serve God, as a church and as individuals, through:

• worshipping God in an atmosphere of joy and reverence,
• inviting others to a life of Christian discipleship by our proclamation of the Gospel through our words and actions,
• sharing responsibility for the nurturing of each other,
• ministering compassionately to people in need,
• providing opportunities for spiritual growth,
• practicing careful stewardship of God's creation, our resources, and our abilities,
• enriching our community of faith through regular fellowship opportunities.

We pray God's blessing on this, our mission.

Our Values

Having examined both sacred scriptures and our inner selves, we the members of Western Hills Christian Church affirm these values as the basis for determining the nature of our Christian witness:

• REVERENCE for God and all that God has created.
• JUSTICE for all people in a manner that demonstrates God's eternal love and mercy.
• COMPASSION, as modeled by the behavior and teachings of Jesus.
• RESPONSIBILITY for one's own actions:  acknowledging and acting constructively upon our interrelatedness to each other within our faith community and to the larger community beyond.

Our Vision

Western Hills Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) will be a community of persons whose faith in God through Jesus Christ moves them to acts of worship and compassionate behavior that emulate and celebrate God's divine order and brings people into a personal relationship with God.
