St David’s vision is that we are a community who are
Growing in Christ and Reaching Out in Love and Faith
we do this by
- Gathering for Worship
Our worship is inclusive, creative, vibrant, progressive, thought-provoking, and beautiful. The worshipping congregation is at the centre of who we are, and the first point of entry to welcome people into our community.
- Gathering in Fellowship
We have a range of fellowship groups where everyone has an opportunity to belong and contribute. Some groups have a function around fellowship, others are fellowship around function. We enable people to connect to others in the congregation.
- Caring for One Another
Many who belong to our community cannot gather for worship, and we care for them and ensure they belong to our community also. We uphold one another with prayer. We celebrate the joys and grieve the losses together. We have systems of pastoral care.
- Serving the Wider Community
Following Jesus’ example, we honour the command to love our neighbour. We acknowledge that we are stewards of this site and people come seeking support. We use our resources and partnerships to provide material support for our neighbours so all may experience life abundantly.
- Growing Spiritually
We put Christ at our centre so all of our members can grow in faith. We offer bible study groups and other theological educational opportunities so all can have a deep and thriving faith.
- Telling Our Story
Joyfully, we tell each other and the wider community the story of God and of St David’s as a vibrant community of witnesses to the Risen Christ. We honour our heritage of public witness on this site and the long connections we have in Albury and beyond.
This beautiful tapestry quilt of our mission statement was crafted by our ladies craft group – we believe and act with the concept of Growing in Christ, and reaching out in love and faith.
