**What the charity does:** ‘The community of Christ at the heart of the community’ ? We believe that we are called to live our Christian faith within the midst of this community and in the midst of this world, transforming it in love while we ourselves are transformed.  We believe that our lives, including our time, talents and resources are gifts given to us by God and we are called to use them with grace and wisdom.  We believe that joining together in worship and fellowship strengthens the bonds of love between us and follows Christ’s example of offering and receiving hospitality.  We believe that the Christian love that unites us is strong enough and humble enough to encompass a wide variety of theological, ecclesiastical, social and political views.  We believe that God has called us to heed the promptings of the Spirit of Holiness to create a community of grace within this community, one that will shine like a beacon of hope and light on the shores of the Firth of Forth.
