2008 / 09 – 11

From September to November 2008 our sermon series focuses on our Vision Statement which reads:

This church is called to

  • worship God
  • make disciples
  • share good news
  • care for those in need

After a message on what vision is, there are six different talks on each of the four aspects of the Vision Statement; three given in the morning services and three given at the evening service.
