Who we are

Christians committed to the whole counsel of God.

We are a Baptist church rooted in the conviction that the Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God and the final authority for all of life. We affirm salvation by faith alone, in Christ alone, by grace alone — to the glory of God alone.

Gospel-centred

The good news of Jesus Christ is at the heart of everything we do and teach.

Bible-saturated

Scripture alone is our authority. We preach expository, Christ-exalting sermons every week.

Community-minded

We are one family — diverse in background, united in Christ. All are welcome at our table.

Our Ministries

Serving every season of life.

Counselling ministry
Biblical Counselling

Counselling

We hold that Scripture is entirely sufficient for man's spiritual needs. We offer biblically-grounded counselling rooted in God's Word — not secular psychology.

 Discipleship ministry
Growth

Discipleship

Sanctification is a lifelong process of gaining the mind of Christ. We walk together in community, spurring one another on toward love and good deeds.

 Fellowship ministry
Community

Fellowship

From home groups to shared meals, we are a family. We celebrate, mourn, serve, and grow together as the body of Christ across generations and cultures.

"Salvation is by faith alone, in Christ alone, by grace alone — to the glory of God alone."

What we believe

A faith rooted in Scripture.

01

The Bible

The Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God — our final authority for faith and life. God breathed it out through the personalities of human authors, and it remains His Word today.

02

The Trinity

God is one being, eternally existing in three persons — Father, Son and Holy Spirit. They are co-equal and co-eternal, acting as one in creation, resurrection, and salvation.

03

Salvation by Grace

We are saved by faith alone, in Christ alone, by grace alone. There is nothing man can do to earn righteousness. God sovereignly elects, and man actively repents and believes.

04

God's Sovereignty

God is sovereign over all things, including salvation. We affirm human responsibility while recognising God's sovereign election and the eternal security of the true believer.

05

Biblical Counselling

Scripture is entirely sufficient for man's spiritual needs. We believe sanctification comes through Spirit-enabled understanding of God's Word, not secular psychology.

06

Creation

We hold to a literal understanding of Genesis. God created the universe in six days. We reject evolutionary models that compromise the integrity of the gospel.
