What We Believe: The Dismas Fellowship Values

  1. We welcome and celebrate one another, regardless of religious or criminal convictions, knowing that we are all “offenders”.
  2. We encourage everyone to give of themselves in some way – cooking meals, setting and cleaning up, sharing our truth or reaching out to others.
  3. We are committed to paying our way by sharing the costs of food and accommodation.
  4. In the Circle everyone is given the opportunity to speak or to pass.
  5. We will treat each other’s story with confidentiality and love. Each story is sacred.
  6. We are committed to being a safe and responsible fellowship with accountability to the church where our meetings are held.
  7. We are committed to ministering to each other as if they were Christ.
