   Our vision is for

  • A church which encourages and sustains each member and friend through their hopes, dreams, desires, problems, uncertainties and needs.
  • A church where everyone is important and respected because Christ loves each one of us as unique individuals with our own views and characteristics.
  • A church where our love for one another is evident in our prayers, our care, our hospitality and our conversation, wherever we are.
  • A church which welcomes all ages, races and abilities and where no group is marginalised.
  • A church where pastoral care is the responsibility of all members as well as the Minister.
