11th March 2026 As We Keep Growing It has been a wonderful and encouraging start to the year together as a church, don't you think!?! We currently have over 110 people working through our SHAPE short course, had 16 present for our first Welcome Lunch of 2026 last Sunday, and have been experiencing a steady stream of those searching for faith or a new church week to week.

11th Feb 2026 Washing Feet What motivates you? What moves you to act? So much of our culture today revolves around the motivation, 'What's in it for me?' People say things like, "You should only do those things that bring you joy." "Do the things that are life-giving… and if there are things that are hard or boring or unpleasant, do them with a view to the pay-off, that those things will be worthwhile in the end."
