About Us
We are a community of people who look to Christ, some with deep faith, many with doubts and questions, but all drawing on the strength of fellowship with others who see Jesus Christ as the pattern for our lives. We do not claim to have all the answers, but if you are interested in taking a journey in search of a fuller understanding of God, his purpose for your life, and his example in Jesus Christ, then we would be delighted to welcome you on board! Our Sunday morning services are welcoming, open, inclusive occasions. We praise God in hymns and songs and prayer. We learn about the message of Jesus because he is, for us, the best way to knowledge of God. We seek to fulfil our mission of Christian faith and care for others and for the world around us through social and charitable activities.
