Mission and Vision
All Saints is here to:
be a faithful church, living and growing as disciples of Jesus Christ
offer the sacraments given by Christ to his church, through his bishops, priests and deacons
offer worship and music which is creative, attractive and brings us closer to God
be a faithful and lively house and family of prayer, praise, teaching, love and care
respond actively, radically and generously to issues and needs at home and abroad
bring more people to a love of God through a knowledge of Jesus Christ
serve the people of Nettleham and to be a spiritual resource for those from further afield
We seek to be a witnessing church by:
being open every day for prayer, peace and closeness to God
welcoming all into our family without judgement or discrimination
offering diverse styles of worship
being a respected and loved community and building at the heart of the village
performing acts of service and generosity
being prepared to tell people why we do what we do
having faith in Jesus Christ at the heart of everything we are and everything we do
We seek to be a growing church, so:
we offer Morning and Evening Prayer daily
we offer the Eucharist during the week, for a variety of mission purposes
we offer Sunday worship for all, designed to appeal to different people:
a quiet Said Eucharist
a Parish Eucharist with rich liturgy and music
quieter, contemplative services, sometimes with healing
we run activities and events for children and for families
offer courses and groups to allow people to explore faith
we ask people to support each other in faith, prayer, care and fellowship through small groups
we believe that if we are as prayerful as possible, and party as much as possible, then:
we will become a place many people want to be
we will live out a gospel of affirming love and caring joy
we will create space for God to do the converting
We seek to be a transforming resource, and therefore:
believe God's desire is to see all his creation and people, loved, cared for and brought to him
believe our calling is to work with God to transform the world as God wants
believe in striving to make church a place where all are safe
try to be open to the whole local community
believe we must love, support and welcome most those whom other find hardest to love
work in partnership with many Nettleham and Lincolnshire charities and organisations
work with partner organisations who exist to bring relief internationally
are not afraid to speak out for the poor and disadvantaged
believe in challenging exploitation and violence
believe in changing society and attitudes for the benefit of the weakest and poorest
feel a duty to call out hypocrisy, callousness, self-centredness and deceit
are prepared to be political if that's what the gospel dictates
We are part of Lincoln Diocese which has declared some key strategic objectives. You can see them by

The Church of England has identified five marks of mission, to which we try to respond in a distinctively prayerful, sacramental and radical way. See them by
