What We Believe

St Andrew stained glass window

We believe there is only one God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit; the Father in His love has sent Jesus Christ, His Son, into the world to save us from our sins by dying for us and rising to life again; He has called us to live by faith in Jesus Christ through the power of His Holy Spirit in our hearts.

Our relationship with God

God has brought us together to worship Him. In worship God speaks to us through the preaching in which the Bible is taught and explained. We respond by praising God, praying to Him, and so learn what he plans for us and requires of us in daily life.


Our relationship with others

God has called us to show Christ's love to, and to share the Gospel with our parish and city. We share these in visiting, daily interaction and friendship, by opening our doors to all, welcoming them and showing hospitality.

As part of Christ's world-wide church we aim to play our part in its growth at home and abroad. We do this by personal and congregational prayer, and by our mutually supportive links with other congregations and Christian workers.
