This is what we vowed!

Fool that I am, I vow my whole life, all that I have and all that I am to be true to Christ in the grace and help of our Holy Spirit for every day the Father grants me. I vow to live for Christ and to have a heart that cries “One thing I desire of the Lord, that I may dwell in your temple and gaze upon your beauty”. So help me God.

Weak as I am, I vow my whole life to be kind to people: to see Christ in others, to serve Christ in others and to show Christ to others in the joy and help of the Holy Spirit for the glory of our Father. I vow to invest all that I have in others. So help me God.

Small as I am and wherever I am, I vow my life to the Gospel of Christ. I vow to offer myself on behalf of the broken and poor in the power and help of the Spirit, giving my whole life that you might be loved in every language, tribe and nation, especially the UK and Europe in our generation for the glory of our Father. I will not live for myself. So help me God.


This was adapted from the original (comtemporary) vows taken by Justin and Pete et al.
