We are a family-based fellowship that seeks individually and collectively to build our relationship with God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Our response is to serve, using the talents and abilities God has given us.
Our mission is to serve God and encourage those working for Him in our neighbourhood, our city, our nation and overseas.
Our vision:
To know Jesus and to make him known
Kia mohīo kī a Ihu, kīa mohīotīa aī īa
