Coming out of Covid we have continued with a raw, stripped back. simple approach, which has allowed for an ease of operations, a relaxed family feel and a focus on Jesus being the attraction & Jesus being the solution. We have continued mÈd-week with Hope Groups, which has provided a space for closer connection and a Chan￿ to delve deeper into the hope Jesus gives in & through His word. Communty Prayer continues to be an important time together On￿ a month. TAR March 2012 Coffee Moming has grown in number, and also in depth of connection & communty as people have gotten to know each other more whilst doing different activities tO9ether.
