The Heart of Church Life
We love God and put him first in everything
We give ourselves wholeheartedly to God, believing that every part of our lives is to be offered to him. Our aim is to please God, do what he wants, and grow continually to be more like him.
We will achieve nothing for God without his help
We are strongly committed to prayer – both on our own and with each other – because we need the Holy Spirit to fill us, empower us to do God’s will and enable us to be effective witnesses.
The Bible is central to all we believe and do
Because God speaks and transforms lives through the Bible, we are eager to read and understand it, and use it in all our activities. Above all, we undertake to obey what it says and make its teaching the measure of our lives.
We value each other highly
We are one body under Christ, so we do all we can to grow in unity, accepting one another in the Lord, working hard to create loving relationships, encouraging one another in the faith, and supporting one another when needs arise.
We care deeply about those who do not know the Lord Jesus Christ
Our most passionate desire for other people is that they should be saved and come to a personal knowledge of the Lord Jesus. We therefore look actively for relevant and innovative ways of making Jesus known and of demonstrating his love in our community.
