Our Aims & Values

These are the cornerstones of church life, and they describe our aspiration both for the church and for everyone who comes.

The Christian life begins with God. Jesus is our Lord, and everything we do should come from a deep reverence and growing love for him. We encourage all Christians to: be devoted and committed to God first of all, with each part of our lives joyfully offered to God live by his word and in dependence on him in prayer maintain the practice of meeting together to break bread join regularly with other Christians in corporate worship, praise and prayer that is Christ-centred, Spirit-empowered and God-exalting be generous with their time, money and resources

In laying down his life for us, Jesus showed us the extent of his love. He calls us to love one another as a demonstration of the love of God. Fellowship means: being committed to each other as brothers and sisters in the Lord Jesus to share joys and sorrows in the common life that we have in Him being intentional to grow in loving unity as God’s family through serving one another accepting one another in the Lord Jesus, forgiving and bearing with one another embracing all who love the Lord

The command of Jesus to each one of us is “Follow me”. That means: understanding that God’s aim is to mould and shape each one of us into the likeness of Jesus a commitment to continue to be filled with the Holy Spirit seeking to draw others closer to Christ being intentional to discover, develop and use our God-given gifts recognising the importance of mutual encouragement and taking part in prayer and Bible study

The gospel is good news, and we want to share it! We encourage all Christians to: serve those outside the church either individually or together be prepared to share the gospel with others support, through prayer, time and finances, local, national or global outreach ministries be prepared to go into the mission field as led by God’s calling
