What to Expect
A BIG WELCOME
We want you to feel welcome. Come as you are and wear whatever you feel comfortable in. Our gatherings are informal and normally last just over an an hour. We usually begin with a time of worship, where we sing songs of praise and thanksgiving to God. You may also hear different people sharing a prayer, a bible reading, a word of encouragement, or a testimony.
GOD’S PRESENCE
We can't change lives but Jesus can. Jesus said that whenever we gather in His name, He would be present in our midst. We celebrate His presence by sharing Communion together, and everyone is warmly invited to participate. God's presence brings joy, healing, hope and life. Whenever we gather in His name, to worship the Creator of the universe, we expect to be changed by Him.
A GOSPEL MESSAGE
Most of our Sunday gatherings include a short gospel message. Our primary teaching series are delivered online and discussed in our small group communities that meet throughout the week. You can find our more about our approach to discipleship and teaching in the video below by our Senior Pastor, Ian Ashby.
A GREAT WELCOME FOR KIDS
We love to encourage families to worship together with their children. We have a range of age-appropriate activities available to help parents and carers. Please select the appropriate location on our website to find out more.
LOVE
Everyone is welcome to worship with us, whether young or old, rich or poor, different races or faces - we love and embrace the rich diversity of God's people when we gather to worship our God together.
