At All Souls we value:
Life with Jesus
The call of Jesus is “follow me.” We are followers/disciples/apprentices of Jesus and therefore are learning to receive his love, cultivate the awareness of his presence, and live out his teachings in every area of our lives. And because we will never do these things perfectly in this life, we are learning more and more to rely on his grace, confess our sins, and again begin again.
Life Together
We are designed to follow this life of faith together. Christianity is relational. We believe that deep, meaningful relationships with the people around us are critical for a deep, meaningful relationship with God (Matt. 7:12; Eph. 4:15-16). Because we are eternally secure and significant in Christ, we are not afraid to humbly give and receive bold love as iron sharpens iron. And at the same time, the church is the family of God, which means that it is to be a safe space for all of us to acknowledge that we are sinners, that we don't have it all figured out, that we haven't arrived yet, but that we are in this journey together.
Life for Others.
Jesus said, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets” (Matthew 22:37-40). We endeavor to follow these two great commands of the Bible corporately and individually. Jesus said, “As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you” (John 20:21). We are a sent people, a people in mission. This mission includes making disciples, planting churches, and seeking the flourishing of life for everyone in our communities and the world. We also want to partner with other churches in our community and in our region in ministries of word and deed.
And in all things...Beauty.
What is an Anglican church?
That’s a good question. The roots of the Anglican Church lie in England, but today the Anglican Church is a communion made up of Christians around the world.
Our vision at All Souls Anglican Church is to participate in God’s mission to redeem the world and a people for his own possession in Concord and the surrounding area. We believe Jesus’ parables of the Kingdom to be true. God’s Kingdom is at this moment spreading like yeast through dough and growing to become the largest tree in the garden (Matt. 13). We believe that the risen Jesus is alive and at work drawing men, women, and children to faith in him—converting them from death to life and redeeming their hearts, minds, families, and communities. To this end, King Jesus has sent us to Concord and the surrounding communities to love and serve him and our neighbors in his name.
