We are a community of Christians, from different walks of life, of different ages and stages of faith. Our aim is to grow as followers of Jesus Christ, loving God and one another and sharing the good news of Jesus with those around us.
We welcome people of all ages, of any religious background or none, and pray that you will come to know and share the love of Jesus.
