Outreach & Mission

Evangelism

We host different events throughout the year especially with the guest in mind.

We also aim to make all our Sunday services as welcoming and accessible as possible so those who are new to the Christian faith can relax and feel at home. 

Finally, every follower of Jesus has their own story and we delight to train and equip one another to share Jesus with those that have yet to meet him.

Mission Support

We equip the church family by raising awareness of world mission, both at home and overseas, encouraging people to pray and build close partnerships between church family and our mission partners.

We support our mission partners, with a focus on those called to long-term service and encouraging others in short-term mission and supporting the evangelistic activities of organisations in this country and overseas.
