THIS IS OUR CHURCH
I want it to be a church that is a lamp to the path of pilgrims; leading them to goodness, truth and beauty. It will be if I am. It will be friendly, if I am. Its pews will be filled, if I help fill them. It will do a great work, if I work. It will bring other people into it’s worship and fellowship, if I bring them. It will be a church of loyalty and love, of fearlessness and love; and a church of a noble spirit if I, who make it what it is, am filled with these. Therefore, with the help of God, I shall dedicate myself to the task of being all these things that I want my church to be.Rev Kevin Needham, Minister THERE IS A SAVIOUR ...
