4 ways to Practice Lent
Lent is a 40-day period of stillness, focus and repentance leading up to Resurrection Sunday. Based on Jesus’ 40 days in the wilderness, Lent is an important tool that can help you stay attuned to God’s voice as you reflect on His sacrificial love.

What We Believe

The Bible is the inspired Word of God

We believe the Bible to be the inspired Word of God, and our only infallible authority. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ and the Bible should have the place of pre-eminence in the church, home and each person’s life. By doing this, there is a joyful, fruitful, and victorious Christian testimony.
