| Our Dream |
 |
As a church we want to see the Kingdom of God advancing in Medway. We believe that the church has a central place to play in this. We recognise what God has done and is already doing in M.F.C. but our hope is to become more and more the kind of church that is outlined below.
Within Medway, we have a dream of:

A church that is bringing change to the city, its presence is making a big difference and actually transforming the society into something better.
A church that effectively demonstrates that the gospel is ‘good news to the poor’ in a variety of life changing ways.
A church that is truly different from the world around it, enough to make the city around it sit up and take notice.
A church that is actually demonstrating what the creator is like in an effective way - a loving, powerful, satisfying, awesome God.
A church that both experiences and demonstrates that it is an attractive heavenly community of God, a family atmosphere is present and it embraces all cultures, young or old, married or single, rich or poor.
A church that is united as it moves forwards in its purpose. Without any factions and undermining behaviour that detract from this.
A church that is continually empowered and led by the Holy Spirit. It sees and experiences God at work in it and through it in a powerful way.
A church that involves everyone in fulfilling its purpose and that helps each person to find fulfilment and usefulness.
A church of hundreds that sees constant growth in numbers without compromising quality as many experience the grace of God and are added to the church.
A church that equips and sends out hundreds of people to make an impact in other areas and in many other nations. Especially through helping establish new churches.
