OUR STORY

Unlimited was founded in 2010 by James and Liz Grier in partnership with the Bishop of Exeter and officially became a Church and Bishop's Mission Order (BMO) in March 2012.

The Church of England recognised that most young people in Exeter have limited exposure to church communities and the Christian faith. For over a decade we've been striving to be a multigenerational family dedicated to making a difference in the lives of all we meet but in particular the rising generations and youth of Exeter.

It’s our heart that we would love, serve and connect with those we meet in such a way that they would be inclined to ask the big questions about faith, life and their purpose, and allow faith to grow as they discover who Jesus is and the difference that only He can make.

VISION

We want to help young people to grab hold of the life that God has for them. We do that by helping them to:

01.

Know and pursue the life that God has given them.

02.

Throw off the things that hold them back from that life.

03.

Deal with the unhelpful beliefs and practices that entangle them.

04.

Fix their eyes on Jesus – who began it all and will complete it.

VALUES

01.

Unlimited by culture & tradition

Unlimited by church culture and tradition where it is unhelpful, unnecessary or inappropriate. We want young people to be themselves as they explore and express faith, rather than having to take on a form of church culture. We want to be real and relevant

02.

Unlimited in our openness to and love
for people

We are passionate about treating people as unique and as God’s made them to be. We want to see people, especially young people, as God sees them and as he’s made them to be, rather than labelling them or writing them off. This love also needs to be expressed practically in social action locally and globally.

03.

Unlimited in our faith and expectation
of God

Unlimited in our faith and expectation of God – living by faith not inhibited by past experience or fears. We want our theology to come from God’s truth not a version coloured by our experience. We want to grow as people of faith living expectant that God guides and speaks specifically into our lives and the church’s.
