- from the 2009 Convention Address of Bishop Wolf

  • Changed attitudes to own responsibilities. Instead of acting as victims, they re-set their vision.
  • Are people of abundance who speak of God’s blessings and experience the joy of giving instead of complaining they don’t have enough.
  • Place a high priority on Christian formation for all ages. Informed believers make faithful disciples.
  • See newcomers not as sources of money, but as people who are seeking a Christ-centered community.
  • Create an environment of mutual responsibility.
  • Develop achievable goals, and rely upon shared ministry to accomplish them.
  • Move from triangulation and gossip to effective ways of communication.
  • Give voice to the core of the Christian faith: to the sinful failings of the human condition, redeemed through the transforming love of the Word made Flesh.
  • Use new technologies in the service of evangelism.
  • Worship every Sunday, hearing the Word of God; receiving the Bread of Life.
