Loving God, Living it out, All the time!

Values are ideals that you hold dear and guide all that you do
and say.
We value responsiveness: We believe that Jesus
is our Head and the Holy Spirit our counselor. We seek to be
responsive to the leading of the Holy Spirit in every area of
the Church’s life and ministry. As part of our responsiveness,
we are committed to “give away our best” whether
people or resources in order to expand God’s Kingdom.
We value reality: We want every expression
of ours—whether speech, music, architecture, or manner—to
be non-hyped, natural, and reality based.
We value relevance: We want to use music,
terminology, and outreach methods that are in touch with the
current culture of our community.
We value relationships: We don’t want
to be just a collection of individuals or a large crowd. God
is looking for a people, a community, who share a corporate value
system. Following Jesus happens in the context of relationships,
not in isolation.
We value righteousness: We seek to be completely
truthful, consistent, and open in relationships with God, with
others, and with ourselves.

The vision of the Vineyard Church of Wellsboro is to become a community
of Biblically based believers, committed to worshipping and loving
God with all our heart and mind and strength. Through loving relationships,
and led by the Holy Spirit, we will learn together how to become
more like Christ, and compassionately extend the ministry of Jesus
to those around us. We will equip believers of all ages to intentionally
advance the Kingdom of God in our homes, at work and school, in
our communities, and throughout the world.
