We affirm our living heritage
Lifeline affirms its founding vision to make care accessible to all, in every community. The Christian heritage that shapes this vision views our neighbour as anyone in need.
Lifeline invites any who share this vision to help provide accessible support and strengthen community.
Lifeline creates opportunities for community participation. We value the unique ways volunteers and staff serve together, enriching Lifeline and the wider community.
Within Lifeline, people of differing beliefs and backgrounds work respectfully together, to create a spirit of support and service.
We support people in the community
We believe in caring for the whole person - mind, body, spirit and relationships. We seek to instill hope and sustain living, journeying with people through the problems and possibilities in their lives, nurturing healing and growth.
We believe in inclusive communities - where everyone can belong and contribute. We seek to embrace diversity by kindling a spirit of fairness and openness that overcomes prejudice, builds understanding and promotes wellbeing.
We believe people can grow through crisis - finding resources to see and respond to painful situations in new ways. We seek to hear what is hurtful to people, inform healthy choices and support them in actions that enhance their wellbeing.
We respect everyone's right to be heard, understood and cared for.
