The Barnabas Values

These are the five ways that help make Barnabas unique

1. We value relationships

We celebrate that relationships with God and with one another are established, cultivated and restored through experiences at Barnabas.

Jesus’ flourishing Kingdom is expressed beautifully through the stunning landscape, tended crops, skilful architecture, lovingly prepared accommodations and delicious food.

3. We value generosity

As God has been generous to us over the years, we reflect that generosity by setting an abundant table.

4. We value home-coming

We all have a spiritual longing for connection and belonging. Barnabas is a place which feels for many like a taste of our long-awaited heavenly home.

5. We value expectancy

We come to God like children with a posture of receptivity, eager to see more of His Kingdom. Sometimes this requires faithful waiting!
