Our Core Values

    1. Jesus as the Centre of all we are
    2. Relationship, with God, each other, and those not yet part of the Church family
    3. Mission – the spreading of the Good News of Jesus Christ.

Jesus himself is before all things, and in him all things hold together. He is the head of the body, the church… and through him God was pleased to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, by making peace through the blood of the cross. It is he whom we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone in all wisdom, so that we might present everyone mature in Christ. Colossians 1: 17-20, 28
