We are an established evangelical church that cherishes orthodox biblical teaching alongside an openness to the work of the Spirit. As we enter a new phase in the life of the church, communications and worship are two areas that play a crucial role in informing and engaging the church family and reaching out to and serving newcomers and enquirers.
