Values

ARISE calls all followers of Jesus, from every tradition, church and denomination throughout the farmlands, towns and villages of The Peak District, High Peak and Derbyshire Dales, to unite for prayer and mission.

As such, we affirm the Churches Together in England statement of belief:

Churches Together in England unites in pilgrimage those Churches in England which, acknowledging God’s revelation in Christ, confess the Lord Jesus Christ as God and Saviour according to the Scriptures, and, in obedience to God’s will and in the power of the Holy Spirit commit themselves:

• To seek a deepening of their communion with Christ and with one another in the Church, which is his body; and

• To fulfil their mission to proclaim the Gospel by common witness and service in the world to the glory of the one God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
