Bedrock Beliefs

To list everything we believe would take quite a long time! But it’s important to be clear about which things that we believe are the most important, most defining about who we are. The congregation deliberated and came up with a list of the Beliefs that are most central to us, which have been grouped into four topic headings as follows;
