Our Values

THE GOSPEL

We value the good news:

  • that Jesus Christ died for sins and was raised from the dead. Turning away from our sin and believing in Him brings new life.


THE BIBLE

We value the Bible:

  • It is God's inspired word which enables us to know God better, thus transforming our minds and changing our hearts.


WORSHIP

We value the worship of God:

  • We seek to magnify God, not ourselves, by responding in thanks to God’s kindness shown in Jesus Christ. We express this by singing together in church and aiming to live obediently 24/7.


PRAYER

We value prayer:

  • We talk to God regularly together as a church, in small groups and personally asking him to help us live like Jesus.


SERVICE

We value serving God:

  • We serve joyfully, sacrificially and humbly out of love, gratitude and compassion. We are committed to serving our church, our denomination and our wider community.


PEOPLE

We value people of all ages and walks of life.

  • We facilitate learning about God for all; from creche and New Life Kids, to Growth Groups during the week.
  • Our ‘Safe Church’ policy ensures that the protection of children and the vulnerable is all-important, and abuse or the potential for abuse will not be tolerated.


COMMUNITY

We value the community of believers:

  • We are committed to meeting together regularly to encourage one another in the faith and seeking to love, care for and forgive one another.

What to Expect on Sunday

Whatever ideas or belief you have about God, we have created a space for you that will help you explore those ideas and beliefs in a welcoming and engaging environment.


Whether you are looking for a new church family or exploring the relevance of Jesus, we invite you to visit one of our services. At our meetings you’ll find a group of people who live and work in the local area and come together to learn of the life that Jesus offers.


There will be live music, prayers, Bible reading and a sermon during the service. Afterwards there will be an opportunity to stick around for some morning tea and a chat.
