The Wycliffe Global Alliance in Community
Background
These principles were developed from the reflections and discussions at the Wycliffe Global Alliance Missiological Consultation on Community, held in Accra, Ghana, 18-19 August 2012.
The consultation included 12 participants from nine nations.
Principles of Community
- We are created for community and called to community (creation and calling).
- We are God’s people, called to consistently and lovingly relate and behave according to the instruction of His Word and the example of Christ (identity—who we are together).
- Living and serving in community glorifies God and provides a tangible example of the Gospel in action. We reflect the image of God through intentionally modelling authentic community (how we live together).
- A community that glorifies God attracts people to God and His mission (what we do together).
