The key strategic themes of ‘Reach Up’, ‘Reach Across’, and ‘Reach Out’ represent the three key strategic areas as outlined by the GC under the umbrella of Tell the World. The South Pacific Division has developed a number of strategic priorities within these three areas in consultation with a large number of stakeholders. It is our aim that all entities and groups within the South Pacific Division will develop strategic action plans to assist in addressing the strategic priorities that have been set – therefore contributing to the achievement of the worldwide SDA church vision. 6 7 SPD Mission Statement 2010-2015 Our Mission To make disciples for Jesus Christ of all peoples, communicating the everlasting gospel in the context of the three angels' messages of Revelation 14:6-12 8 SPD Mission Statement 2010-2015 OUR METHODS FOR DISCIPLING ARE: Proclaiming Teaching Ministering 9 SPD Mission Statement 2010-2015 Our Method 1. We disciple through Proclaiming • God’s sovereignty and love • Christ's commission (Matthew 28:18-20), to all the world, most fully revealed in His reconciling ministry and atoning death. • The Bible as God's infallible revelation of His will. • The second advent of Christ • The continuing authority of God’s Ten Commandment law with its reminder of the seventh-day Sabbath. • The role of church members in leading others to accept Jesus as their personal Saviour • The need for enriching individual and congregational worship 10 SPD Mission Statement 2010-2015 Our Method 2. We disciple through Teaching • The acceptance of Jesus as personal Saviour and Lord and commitment to His remnant church • The necessity of a vital spiritual community • The privilege of ministers and congregations reaching out to serve their communities in harmony with their spiritual gifts • The blessings of corporate unity and purpose • Holistic growth that develops mind, body, and character • All to reaffirm their commitment to Christ as Saviour every day, and honour Him as Lord through obedience to His will 11 SPD Mission Statement 2010-2015 Our Method 3. We disciple through Ministering • So that the biblical emphasis on the well-being of the whole person makes the preservation of health and the healing of the sick a priority • So that people may experience the full life that God intended • So that individuals and families may embrace the Seventh-day Adventist lifestyle • To all who affiliate with the church, enabling and affirming their ongoing spiritual development • To the poor and oppressed, by cooperating with the Creator in His compassionate work of restoration • To all seekers after truth, nurturing them, leading them to baptism and to ongoing growth and maturity in Christ 12 SPD Values Statement 2010-2015 Seventh-day Adventist values are grounded in the Bible and the life of Jesus Christ. We believe that every person is deserving of respect and dignity because of the infinite value that God has placed upon them. Through God’s grace every person is gifted for and needed in the diverse activities of the Church family. We respect the diversity, individuality, and freedom that come from being a worldwide body of believers. We also value unity– a family of faith engaged in representing the reign of God in our world through ethical conduct, mutual regard, and loving service. Our faithfulness to God involves commitment to and support of His body, the Church. 13 SPD Strategic Themes 2010-2015 The following three Strategic Themes have been identified by the General Conference for the new quinquennium and adopted by the South Pacific Division: REACH UP REACH ACROSS REACH OUT 14 SPD Strategic Themes REACH UP to God for spiritual renewal through prayer and study of the Word, highly valuing the gifts of the Holy Spirit in our midst. 2010-2015 REACH ACROSS to each other in the church family, embracing our unity and diversity, discipling, nurturing, building community relationships, improving structure and being REACH OUT to others as involved in the life a friendly church putting of the church.
