We are... ...a Baptist Church which seeks to Worship God in ways that meet today's needs, and is committed to Bible-based teaching. We seek to be friendly, open and available to all who come, and we specifically seek to make positive links with our local community in order to serve, and to be able to demonstrate the Kingdom of God. We have a commitment to living for Jesus, to mission, and to helping people grow in understanding their faith, and deepening their experience of God. We place emphasis on both Word and Spirit for a balanced life in Christ.
Who Does What? Many of our members are involved in the ministry of the church alongside our full time Pastor. For more details, meet our team.
