Mission Statement
We, the members of Christ Church Montpelier, are a community brought together by God’s everlasting love. Our purpose is to provide a compassionate environment where, empowered by God’s Spirit, we are both comfortable and challenged to discover Christ in ourselves so that we can share Christ with others and make Christ known to the world. In furtherance of this purpose, our mission of living out our baptismal vows and being followers and worshipers of Jesus Christ is:
- To provide meaningful opportunities to worship together as a congregation with prayer, music, and celebration of the sacraments.
- To nurture and support each member’s call to ministry so that we can maximize our ability to be a resource to people in need and a role model within the community.
- To provide a Christian education program for adults, youth and children, which enables all participants to more fully understand the power of Christ’s love.
- To worship, learn, sing, and work together in a building, which is well maintained, and accessible to all.
- To communicate effectively with each other through a variety of means so that we can improve our understanding and respect for each other and for the ways in which God’s love manifests itself in each one of us.
- To achieve one hundred percent participation in the joyful giving of our time, money, and talents so that we can fulfill our mission and ministry in the parish, diocese and community.
