Welcome to
We'd love you to join us at 10am on Sunday

Currently, during our Sunday services we are exploring the Gospel of Luke.
Written around AD 80-90 by Luke, a physician and companion of the Apostle Paul, this Gospel stands out as an "orderly account" so that we may know the certainty of the things we have been taught about Jesus.
As we delve into these chapters together, may we encounter afresh the Jesus who seeks the lost, heals the broken, and calls us to live out His radical love. Let this be a time of renewal, where the words of Luke inspire us to follow Christ more closely in our community and beyond.
You can listen to our sermons on Spotify.
