3 The Diocese of Sheffield is called to grow a sustainable network of Christ-like, lively and diverse Christian communities in every place which are effective in making disciples and in seeking to transform our society and God’s world.

4 We are the body of Christ. In the one Spirit we were all baptized into one body. Let us then pursue all that makes for peace and builds up our common life. We break this bread to share in the body of Christ Though we are many, we are one body, because we all share in one bread.

5 For as in one body we have many members and not all the members have the same function, so we who are many are one body in Christ and individually members of one another. Romans 12.4-5. But, speaking the truth in love, we must grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and knitted together by every ligament with which it is equipped, as each part is working properly, promotes the body’s growth in building itself up in love. Ephesians 4.14-16.
