02 Activities

What the charity does

We enjoy worshipping God together, Bible study, being active and serving the community, as well as sharing together as God works in the lives of his people and especially those thinking about the Christian faith for the first time. The church is active in running our own project, The ARK. This facility is used twice weekly as a drop-in coffee shop/cafe and is used frequently for youth projects.
