 A growing church in the Diocese of St Mark the Evangelist  Hard financial realities

  • 2. We serve a God who gives, and gives and gives!

 Creation and provision  Jesus who gave his life for us

“For you know the generous act of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that by his poverty you might become rich” (2 Corinthians 8:9)

 The gift of the Holy Spirit
