CCSW Mission and Priorities:
In response to God's call in Jesus Christ "to become the Gospel,
to share the Gospel and to serve in mission from our doorsteps to the ends
of the earth," the mission of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)
in the Southwest is to be a source of vision, nurture, wholeness and mutual
accountability in order to serve and to strengthen congregations.
• Provide vision and spiritual leadership.
• Provide support to congregations
and clergy.
• Structure the work of the region so that primary decision-making arises
out of congregations and through the areas.
• Assist areas and congregations in establishing new congregations.
• Challenge and equip congregations to reach out and to minister to children,
youth and young adults.
• Intentionally seek ethnic participation and representation in decision-making
processes.
• Provide assistance and consultative help to congregations for their program
needs.
• Facilitate inter-congregational activities.
• Provide systems for effective communication that will strengthen our
connection
