Their desire is to see every individual grow as disciples of Jesus Christ, experiencing freedom, wholeness and effectiveness; each person finding and fulfilling their purpose in Christ. They are passionate about the local church and its influence in the community; where church is home, a safe place, a family, a place of friendship, belonging and becoming. They are actively involved with the other churches in Sleaford and district, supporting the unity and togetherness of the body of Christ in the town and beyond.
