"We purpose to be a worshipping, growing, and caring missionary church family"

We

Meaning, each Individual who regularly associates with Manor

Purpose to be -

A recognition that we, as individuals and as a church family, are not perfect, but deliberately strive to become as Christ intends us to think and act.  Realizing we are meant to live in community, we commit to being vulnerable, trusting others to hold us accountable (Romans 3:23 Romans 12:1-2 Phil 2:12,14).

A Worshiping –

 We believe that worship is our appropriate response to God’s nature, attributes, and claims. Our personal response is to daily live our lives holy and pleasing to God. As a church community, worship is intelligent, orderly, and inspirational (Roman 11:33- 12:1 John 4:24 1 Peters 2:5 1 Corinthians 14:40)

Growing

 We intentionally strive toward spiritual maturity and increasing the universal body of Christ numerically and  spiritually (Phil 1:91, 1 Cor 3:1-3, 1 Cor 14:20,  Ps 117:1, Ps 150:6, Acts 2:47).

Caring

We intentionally strive to recognize needs and hurts. We commit to provide help and an environment of healing both within and outside our church community (Acts 2:44-45).

Missionary –

We understand our missionary focus to be an act of worship that is not merely an activity, but a lifestyle. Our missionary focused living should influence both local and global community (Matt 28:19-20).

Church Family

We are an interdependent community where unique individuals are unified through personal relationships with Jesus Christ (1 Cor 12:12-27).
