Who
we are and what we do
What
is a church?
A church is a group of
Christians who are committed to meeting together regularly to encourage one
another to worship and serve God, to follow Jesus Christ and to share the
good news about Jesus with non-Christians.
What is an Evangelical?
An Evangelical Christian
believes that the Bible is God's Word to mankind and that it is the final
authority for belief and behaviour. At the heart of the message of the Bible
is the good news (the 'evangel' or 'gospel') that God has appointed Jesus
to be the 'Christ' (the king of the world) and that Jesus the Christ died
for our sins, was buried and after three days rose again. God freely accepts
and forgives everyone who sincerely acknowledges Jesus to be their king and
relies on him as their Saviour.
What do we do?
There is a strong emphasis
in our services on teaching the Bible. The preaching is always Bible-based.
We believe that when God's Word is explained the voice of God is heard.
We meet weekly to share together in the Lord's Supper
(the communion or breaking of bread).
We baptise people by immersion on their
profession of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
We sing the praises of God using a variety
of hymns both old and new.
We cater for all ages (creche, Junior
Church, youth work etc)
We provide regular 'Christianity Explored' courses
for anyone who wants to look into the Christian faith.
