Sunday Morning Worship

Sundays at 11:30 am

Each Sunday morning we have Morning Worship.  This service has a traditional feel and includes a mix of hymn singing, prayers, children's address and teaching from God's Word.  Pastor Anderson is normally the speaker, but from time to time it's a visiting speaker.

Normally Pastor Anderson undertakes a series of teachings on Sunday mornings. 


This service is followed by our Breaking of Bread service where we meet at the Lord's Table to remember his death upon the cross for our sins.

Our Mission

A Place for Worship

The primary reason we meet together is to focus our attention on God, giving Him our worship and receiving His blessing and inspiration. Each of these occasions is a special time of spiritual refreshment. We hope this is what you desire also.


A Place for Learning

To us, studying the Bible is vital because it not only instructs us intellectually, but also guides us spiritually. We believe it and accept it as God's Word to us, a Book that is alive and relevant to life today. Learning its truths is a thrilling adventure.


A Place for Enrichment

For every person at every age level we offer a wealth of opportunities - special programs and ministries for children, youth and adults which fill the church calendar. You can be sure that in this centre of activities there's more that one place where you can be personally enriched.

A Place for Friendship

Nothing quite compares to the joy of Christian friendship. That's why we make it a priority to build lasting bonds between the members of our church family - bonds of concern and genuine commitment to one another. Best of all, this circle of care is ever widening. We'd love for it to include you, too.


A Place for Service

Just as Jesus Christ came "not to be ministered unto, but to minister..." we accept our responsibility to reach out in service to others. This applies both within the church family and outside our fellowship. We look forward to serving you, and we hope to see you soon.

Home: Our Mission
