Public benefits

As a Church we seek to enhance the spiritual wellbeing of our members and adherents and members of the public who would come onto our premises, it is well documented that those who have a faith are generally happier indviduals. Our activities are specifically designed to meet the needs of all ages and there is something for everyone contained

within our weekly activities. Our youthwork and fellowship groups also provide the opportunity for times of fun and social activities and outings which also help to provide an all round experience from being part of the fellowship. Most of our activites are available to non members and anyone from the community is welcome to worship with us. There is no private benefit or harm from the purpose of the church.

What your organisation does

Our aim is to preach and teach sound Bibilical doctrine to our members and adherents, we also preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to those who have not yet made a decision to become born again Christians. There is also a discipleship course for new Christians. We organise a number of youth ministries with the aim of evangelism and incorporating fun

and games to give a rounded approach to our work with the young. On Wednesday mornings we run a fellowship and lunch club for pensioners and on thursday mornings we run a mother and toddlers group which like our meetings is open to the community and provides a time of fellowship for the parents and children alike.
