Jacob's Well

We seek mutually transformative friendship with those on the margins of society and equip others to do the same in their own context. We are an ecumenical Christian community, that is, we come from many different denominations and churches. We share the basics of the Christian faith, as defined in the Apostles' Creed, and we find unity around our c... ommitment to Christ and to loving the marginalized people He loves. We strive to keep Christ at the centre of all we do. Our theological differences do not drive us apart, but challenge us to love each other in the midst of tension, and to be respectful, gracious and generous in conversation. We believe our common purpose as followers of Christ is to announce the good news (Gospel) of the Kingdom of God, a Kingdom of justice and shalom, where nothing is missing or broken, where all things are reconciled and restored. We do this in word and action, longing and working for right relationships between God, ourselves, our fellow humans, and creation. ValuesRead More
