About Calabash
Mission & Values
What we stand for, and the principles behind everything we do.
Our vision
“A melting pot of cultures, people, ideas and dreams. A place where there is love, grace, compassion and company.”
An opportunity to gather regularly with like-minded people, to enjoy a time of ‘being’, amongst a community where you feel you ‘belong’.
The purpose of Calabash-Bridge is to be a safe space for people of every nation, tribe, people group and language, standing hand-in-hand, alongside their church families and community allies of all backgrounds.
United on a firm foundation of love, grace and the unity of a multicultural community.
So as to nurture a sense of belonging, empowerment and support for one another — for people of all walks of life.
Love, grace and unity is the foundation Calabash-Bridge is built upon.
We aim to promote a safe space, for our Calabash tribe of all ages, to gather regularly.
An oasis, a home away from home — a club where different nations meet, mingle and celebrate each other.
