Our Vision

We aim to obey the Great Commission in sharing the evangelical reformed faith within the Solent region by fostering partnerships among existing works as well as training up leaders for the future.

Our Strategy

We wish to promote the Great Commission in the Solent area through:

a.   Evangelical ministry seminars

The purpose of these is:

- To encourage a better understanding of the Bible and to help us to accurately, urgently and relevantly communicate this to others, with a particular emphasis on preaching.

- To draw together church pastors, leaders and those in regular word ministry to promote mutual friendship and gospel partnership.

- To give practical help in dealing with significant issues of our day—including those concerning our mindset, our theology and our behaviour.

- To draw from the past to engage, enlighten and encourage us in our churches today.

- To help us be better equipped in making Christ known.

b.  Training of apprentices

Bible teachers who rightly handle the Word of God are essential in today’s Church. Within the congregation, home group, children’s club, youth group and amongst the elderly—indeed wherever the Bible is taught—we need people who can teach God’s Word in the power of the Spirit. Partnership churches are already working to equip men and women to teach the Bible with greater confidence in their context.

Our Hope for the Future

It is our aspiration to provide joint training of apprentices within the region for those who wish to explore the possibility of full time Bible teaching or pastoral ministry.
We desire that under God, new Word centred ministries should be established across this area.

Two ways in which this can be explored:

- Revitalising struggling congregations.

- Planting gospel churches where there are none.
