the other day, my uncle mark said that he thinks it's important for every family to make a "mission statement," (a formal summary of the aims and values of a company, organization, or individual). i thought that was a beautiful thing, and i decided that what better time than in this awkward-shaky-transition time in my life to write my own life mission statement? ya know? to put where my life is pointed and what i'm all about down on paper (or internet)... something to consistently look at, to remind me, and take seriously. so here goes! after much thought and care into each word, the mission/ vision statement of alexi rae speich! (: haha
i, alexi speich, made in the image of God the Father and redeemed by the precious blood of Christ, brought into daughter-ship, exist to advance the gospel of Jesus Christ as Lord by loving and cherishing the individuals around me well, as fellow image-bearers, pointing all i encounter towards the reconciliation of Christ by my words and actions. to effectively do this, i will commit myself to first the daily cultivation of personal intimacy with God, attentiveness to the Holy Spirit, and the relentless pursuit of becoming more like Christ so that i may honor God with my life.
my mission is being fulfilled through these core values:
1. commitment to the study of the Word of God so that i may know truth and gain wisdom.
2. commitment to seeking God through prayer.
3. commitment to a posture of thanksgiving and gratitude. i am only redeemed because of the love and goodness of Christ; may i never forget.
4. commitment to vulnerability so that my relationships represent authenticity.
5. commitment to repentance, as a broken human being with a sinful nature.
6. commitment to the appreciation of other cultures and backgrounds.
7. commitment to a life surrendered to Christ alone.
