« Upon what does Jesus build his church? An unmistakable change Swimming to Jesus »

Psalm 61 (Listen)

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. Of David.

61:1   Hear my cry, O God,
    listen to my prayer;
2   from the end of the earth I call to you
    when my heart is faint.
  Lead me to the rock
    that is higher than I,
3   for you have been my refuge,
    a strong tower against the enemy.
4   Let me dwell in your tent forever!
    Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings! Selah
5   For you, O God, have heard my vows;
    you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.
6   Prolong the life of the king;
    may his years endure to all generations!
7   May he be enthroned forever before God;
    appoint steadfast love and faithfulness to watch over him!
8   So will I ever sing praises to your name,
    as I perform my vows day after day.

(ESV)

Kath Hamm’s story

“God has kept me and given me strength through some very difficult times”

Even though at times I’ve been afraid and had little faith, God’s love for me has remained constant, promising to never leave me nor forsake me, no matter what may lie ahead.

Fellowship and growth
We grow in many different ways, but a great deal of Christian growth is done in fellowship and community with others. That's why we offer many different ministries to help with our growth, from relaxed fellowship at our coffee morning, to in-depth study at Growing Together.
