What We Believe
All Saints is an evangelical Anglican Church. Our congregations are made up of different ages and backgrounds and everyone receives a warm welcome. You will find both traditional and contemporary worship in our services because we love the rich heritage of the church whilst we also seek to be relevant to our ever changing culture. The values below are ones that we hold central in our life together. They will give you an idea of what makes us tick and why we worship with our whole heart Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Values
Hearing God's Word
The reason we know anything more than generalities about God is because he has spoken to us and revealed his nature and purposes to us in Jesus. The Bible is the witness to this revelation and for that reason we are committed at All Saints to teach the Bible in church, home groups and in our families. God breathes his life into us, giving us a personal relationship with himself, as we hear him speak.
Sharing the gospel
The gospel is our passion. It is clear from the suffering and conflict we daily witness that something is not right with our world; but the Good News is that God has acted in history to put all things right in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. There is hope for our world and forgiveness and life for those who trust in all that God has accomplished through Jesus death on the cross.
Living by the Spirit
In Jesus we discover true humanity. This is how we are supposed to live and the Holy Spirit does the seemingly impossible in our lives by changing us to be like him. He also brings us together in the family of God, the church. We encourage and support each other, and together take part in God’s mission to redeem us and our communities for his glory and our good.
Worshipping God
Worshipping God is our duty and most definitely our joy. It lies at the heart of our personal relationship with our Heavenly Father who made us and has drawn us back to himself. We are loved by him, through the Son and by the Holy Spirit. We celebrate and thank him for this in our church family life, throughout the week and in our services.
