Our vision is to follow Jesus by learning His ways and sharing His love  

We seek to enjoy fellowship together as we worship God, grow in discipleship, develop in ministry and reach our community with the gospel.  

We value welcome, worship and witness. 

All are invited to join in prayer and worship and embark on a spiritual journey with us.
