About us …
A village church
Our church stands in the centre of our village. Like a beacon, it is visible from miles around, an unfailing reminder of Christ’s presence in our midst.

Jesus said, ‘I am the vine; you are the branches.’ At church, we ask to be remade in Christ’s image. We are living in this reality. Come and see.
