Christ Church in the local community
Christ Church has a rich history of mission and outreach to the local community. We still believe that all of us here are to take seriously God’s call to love our neighbour so we want to bless our community. We want to show and offer God’s love to those who live and work in this local area and those who visit our church & neighbourhood.
