Who we are
Worship is at the heart of our life together. Being in the Reformed tradition we value the discovery and exploration of God’s word in preaching and other creative ways. All is done in the context of song and music drawn from our rich heritage and from more recent sources. This includes music from Taize, the Iona Community, Graham Kendrick and beyond. We encourage everyone to engage and participate in worship in prayer, reading, drama, silence and activities.
Worship is for all ages, for people of all backgrounds and life experiences and we seek to reflect this in what we do. In worship we are prepared, challenged, encouraged and motivated for our mission which is to show the love of Jesus Christ in our communal and individual lives and to respond in loving concern to the needs of local communities and the wider world.
Where we’re going
We are looking to be more creative in our worship life but some of that will have to wait until the completion of our building project which we hope will be in late 2010. This will give us a set of buildings that are light, welcoming and flexible in which the communities around us will be able to comfortable and allow us to serve them by working in partnership.
We aim to be a church where it is safe to ask questions, express doubt, and seek answers. We seek to be a richly diverse company of people committed to being on a journey together as we make sense of the claim of Jesus Christ upon our lives in a complex and often unsettling world.
