About the Uniting Church - Our Calling As a people journeying together we affirm our calling under God: * to preach Christ th ... e crucified and risen one and confess him as Lord * to bear witness to the unity of faith and life in Christ, rising above cultural, economic, national and racial boundaries * to engage in fearless prophetic ministry in relation to social evils which deny God's active will for justice and peace * to act with God alongside the oppressed, the hurt and the poor * to accept responsibility for the wise use and conservation of the finite resources of this earth for the benefit of all * to recognise, treasure and use the gifts of the Spirit given to all God's people for ministering and to live a creative, adventurous life of faith, characterised by openness, flexibility, hope and joy.
