God is in the
transformation business
and we get to join in!
Our Vision + Purpose
We are a family of transformative communities ignited by Isaiah 61—where the Spirit of God is upon us to bring the good news of Jesus and His power is upon us to heal, renew, and restore our city and beyond.
Everyone is welcome. Every background, every culture, everyone has a place in the story of God.
This is a place of new beginnings—where transformed people join God in transforming the world.
We are a community passionately pursuing God’s heart for our city through our ordinary, everyday lives.
We don’t want to be the best church in the community—we exist for it!
Compelled by compassion and led by the Spirit, we reach out to the last, the lost, and the least.
OUR VALUES
WE ARE AN ISAIAH 61 CHURCH
We are a family of transformative communities ignited by Isaiah 61—where the Spirit of God is upon us to bring the good news of Jesus and His power is upon us to heal, renew, and restore our city and beyond
WE PASSIONATELY PURSUE THE PRESENCE OF GOD
We are a church that longs for the manifest presence of God, where His Spirit moves in undeniable ways—not just in our gatherings, but in everyday life. Here, worship is raw, prayer is powerful, and lives are changed in an atmosphere of faith, holiness and expectation.
WE TREASURE THE UNITY OF THE WORD AND THE SPIRIT
The same Holy Spirit who inspired the Scriptures continues to illuminate them so that we can live them fully and faithfully. We hold both Word and Spirit together as we follow Jesus, proclaim His message, and partner with Him in power—through healing, prophecy, deliverance, and the Spirit-led works we see throughout the Bible—so what’s breathed in through the Word is lived out in the world.
TOGETHER WE ARE BEING TRANSFORMED BY JESUS
It’s easy to fake it, but we choose to be honest with God and each other, which creates space for Jesus to meet us, challenge us, and shape us. We are becoming more like Jesus, who saw the value in everyone and lived life through humility and integrity. We seek to follow His example and step into who God created us to be.
WE WANT TO BE THE BEST CHURCH FOR OUR COMMUNITIES
We don’t want to be the best church in the community—we exist for it!!
Compelled by compassion and led by the Spirit, we reach out to the last, the lost, and the least.
OUR CHURCH IS A TRAINING GROUND
Our heart is to cultivate growth—inviting people to step in, grow in confidence, and be released into ministry and leadership. We will continue to create safe spaces and provide practical training as well as launching new sites and churches.
If you’re looking for a church to call home, we would love to invite you to join us as we seek to bring transformation to our city. There are loads of ways to get involved at V61, whether that’s Sunday services, midweek groups, compassion projects, joining a team or coming along to one of our many sports or social events. You are so welcome here and we’re looking forward to getting to know you!
