Once a year we formally invite the church family to think and pray about their 'giving' to the church - both financial and in terms of serving. Please do read the information below and if you would like to start serving or lay down an area of ministry then please click on the form below.
Join a Life Group
Life Groups are made up of ordinary people who want to learn more about who God is and how He can be relevant to our daily lives. It’s a place where you can form friendships, share both the good times and the not so good, and work out what it means to follow Jesus today. During a typical Life Group evening, you might worship together, pray for each other and have a time of sharing and teaching.
