We are a community of people, open to everyone, who are working out together what it means to follow Jesus in the 21st century. We are committed to worshipping God and serving each other and the village. Although our building structure is Victorian it doesn't look or feel that old on the inside … but you need to see that for yourself! Our style is a blend of traditional and up to date in a relaxed and informal setting. We meet in different groups through the week and month with our main service at 11.00am on a Sunday morning.
