Who we are
We're a church that’s passionate about making space for everyone to explore and experience the transformative power of Jesus.
As we do, we believe our faith will deepen, our love for one another will grow, and we’ll become more united as a community.
We’re all on a journey — no one has it all figured out, and that’s okay. Whether you’re full of faith, full of questions, or somewhere in between, you’re welcome here.
Our church community is shaped by five core values that guide how we live, worship, and walk together in faith. At the heart of who we are:
We welcome everyone
We celebrate our differences
We journey and grow together
We live empowered by the Holy Spirit
We seek to love and serve generously
As a church, we’re rooted in the traditions of both the Congregational Federation and the Baptist Union, working together as one community, following Jesus.
What we believe
We believe in one God, three in one, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe Jesus Christ is God in human form, who lived among us, died on the cross and was raised to life 3 days later offering new life to us all.
We believe the Bible is God’s living word, guiding us in faith and through life.
We believe the Holy Spirit is at work in the world today, transforming and changing us for the better.
