Life doesn't always unfold the way we hoped. Some seasons leave us carrying loss, questions, and weariness. But we were never meant to carry them alone.

Join us on Saturday 31st October, for an honest conversation with Dr Amy Erickson (co-editor of God’s Yes to Women) about finding belonging in Jesus through grief, hope and rest.

Our session will conclude at 5pm. We invite you to stay, for a shared dinner following the event.

Please RSVP by 10th October to the Church office at; [email protected], for catering purposes.

That is an absolute wrap on Magnified! Holiday Club 2026! 🥳🐞✨

What an absolutely incredible week it has been. We were blessed with beautiful weather all week as we got to share the amazing news of Jesus with so many wonderful kids, zooming in on how big His love, power, care and forgiveness truly are!

A massive, heartfelt THANK YOU to our magnificent team of leaders and volunteers who showed up to serve with so much energy and joy every single day—we are beyond grateful for you all! ❤️

We finished off the week in the best way possible with our Family Fun Night! It was a joy to welcome so many parents, siblings, and church family members into the building. From enjoying crafts and activities together and singing our favourite songs, to sharing stories of the week, the room was filled with laughter. We ended the evening perfectly, sharing a delicious dinner and dessert together. 🍲🍰
