Our Vision

The history of how the Church Of Christ was established in the area of Koongara Park now known as Magill, South Australia, is a story of a dream – a dream of several steadfast and dedicated people who saw a vision become a reality. It was a story of planning and finance and the work of hundreds of people. It was done with one aim in mind, that others would learn of the love of God and be enriched through their connection with God, our community and our world.

Today’s world is vastly different to the year 1946 when that vision emerged. Today we are blessed with the richness of opportunities that beckon us from every direction opportunities that can encourage or destroy, give purpose or bring despair.
 
Today is our time and place to establish a new dream-a dream that will ensure that the generations of the future are enriched by their connection with the God we know, supported by their connections with those who know and share the hopes and dreams of that God, and who care for the world that our God has created for us all to enjoy-a place where people’s lives are enriched through experiencing the love of God and his people, through a strong sense of ‘Connection’
 
Connecting with each other…..
As the body of Christ, we belong together. In gathering together our lives are shaped and nurtured in a safe and caring community. We value and respect one another and are enriched by our diversity of age, culture and interests. We enjoy being community and celebrating life’s significant moments together.
 
Connecting with God…..
We are children of God, completed and fulfilled by our relationship with him. We value opportunities to worship him collectively and individually, in awe and reverence, to be inspired by his mystery and wonder. We value our freedom to approach worship in different ways. As people of God we should reflect God, through how we live, and help people experience God’s love and to know who He is.
As the body of Christ, we belong together. In gathering together our lives are shaped and nurtured in a safe and caring community.

Connecting with the World…..
We are part of God’s world, and therefore share responsibility for its well-being. We care for our neighbours, for all peoples, and for the physical environment. We strive for unity, reconciliation and justice, both locally and globally, and offer a voice of hope and purpose in a challenging and rapidly changing world.
