Our church depends on the support and commitment of a large group of volunteers who generously give of their time, skills and financial resources. Together we see this commitment as the practical outworking of our faith and our discipleship.
We support ministers and ministry team leaders to enable them to commit fully, to our mission and ministry work

"My wife and I moved to Beachlands in 2016. We loved the beaches, community feel, having everything 5 minutes away without a single set of traffic lights, there is even a Trolley Derby! We wanted to be involved in a local church and appreciated how welcome we were made to feel. I became a servant leader in April 2021 to contribute to the church so others can also experience this community connection".
