Compassion is at the heart of the Christian gospel – God’s compassion for us, which was most powerfully expressed in the gift of his son, Jesus.
Compassion should then be seen as the natural heart expression for the church, as we seek to live out the grace of Christ. Here in St. Andrew’s, we are forever astonished at the ways in which we find God calling and equipping us to live out the healing mercy and tender goodness of our Lord.
Compassion is what drives our heart for mission as well. St Andrew’s cares deeply that every person in this world would come to hear the gospel message and learn of the hope that can be found with Jesus
