As part of our ministry and mission we are - Called to a life of love and this involves us in the ways we love our neighbour and one another.
In The New Testament, Paul speaks of ‘one another’ commands which can be gathered under the categories of affirming one another, sharing with one another, and serving one another.(Tim Keller). These are community-building practices/habits for Christians, and for the congregation/church.
It takes us all time to get to know others and build such relationships. However, as a congregation we are seeking to apply these things and live them out among us. Please have a look around the opportunities that are listed here. For example, there are small groups which meet regularly and are an excellent way to build friendship and faith in our church. , New Small Groups are created regularly as people find new ways to gather and share.
Other ministries, such as those listed under Family, Children and Youth, or other groups like the Tuesday Focus, or Paint and Pray are opportunities both to participate in the fellowship of the group, and also to serve through supporting the activities. If you would like to be involved, please contact the group leader or the Church office.
We would invite you to explore ways that you should feel free to connect and join in with the one anothering.
