NEWCOMERS AND VISITORS
Welcome!
Our practice is that Communion is open to all who are baptized and moved by
the Spirit to receive Holy Communion. Those wishing a prayer or blessing are
also invited to the altar rail – please carry a BAS or bible so the priest will
know you require prayer.
………………………………………………………
These are the Five Marks of Mission:
 To proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom
 To teach, baptize, and nurture new believers
 To respond to human need by loving service
 To seek to transform unjust structures of society, to challenge
violence of every kind, and to pursue peace and reconciliation
 To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew
the life of the earth.
