Life at Northpark: Mission Focused
Northpark’s mission statement is: Letting God love us and love others through us. The purpose of a mission statement is to create a climate that defines life within an organization. A mission statement answers the question of what the reason for an organization’s existence is. A mission also guides an organization as to what it ought to do. The foundation for a mission statement is comprised of the vision that the organization has for what it desires to be. The cornerstone for building a foundation that supports the mission is its values; having a strong sense of what is truly important.
Our mission is built on a vision for being a church that is characterized by growth. Our vision seeks growth that is primarily qualitative and secondarily quantitative. Our vision focuses on God’s love as the means of helping us grow in the ability to receive, appreciate, and express God’s love. Our vision is to be nurtured and empowered by God’s love. This means we want to grow in greater awareness of the multiple ways that God expresses his love.
Our desire for quantitative growth expresses our vision that God’s love is readily available to all and that we can share God’s love with others by using our lips and lives. Our vision is to grow as God’s children sustained by his love so that we can authentically let God love others through us. We have a vision for being an active partner with God in expressing His love to those in the community of Kingwood and to those who call Northpark their Christian family.
