mission & vision
D
“A Church of Scotland church plant led by Rev. Stuart Finlayson, Community Pioneer Minister”
We are a community committed to seeking and serving God in Forres, joining in with what He is already doing in the lives of those around us.
Our heart is to encourage spiritually curious, unchurched families to discover the Good News of Jesus Christ—and to journey with them toward a life transformed by His love and truth.
We create welcoming spaces where people can build genuine relationships and explore who Jesus is.
We gather in small house and community groups to study the Bible, allowing Scripture to shape how we live and learn in Christ.
We regularly share meals, pray together, and support one another in all of life’s ups and downs.
At the core of who we are is the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18–20) and the vibrant life of the early church (Acts 2). We long to see people come to faith in Jesus, be filled and led by the Holy Spirit, and live lives that glorify God the Father.
Is Jesus calling you?
Come and see—with us.
Our Mission
At Forres Community Church, our mission is to be a network of everyday people who follow Jesus and help others do the same—starting in our own neighbourhoods.
We aim to live with honesty and integrity, allowing the Holy Spirit to guide our choices and shape our lives. We create safe, welcoming spaces where spiritually curious people can explore faith, discover the truth of the Bible, and grow in trust and commitment to God.
We are committed to Making Kingdom Disciples—people who join in God’s work of rescuing and restoring creation, living this out both personally and in community.
