Our Beliefs
We are an evangelical Anglican church. Our understanding of what the Bible teaches is outlined in two documents from 500 years ag0, The 39 Articles of Religion and the Book of Common Prayer.

Here are two key statements:
Article VI "Holy Scripture containeth all things necessary to salvation: so that whatsoever is not read therein, nor may be proved thereby, is not to be required of any man, that it should be believed as an article of the Faith, or be thought requisite or necessary to salvation."
​
Article XI "We are accounted righteous before God, only for the merit of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ by Faith, and not for our own works or deservings: Wherefore, that we are justified by Faith only is a most wholesome Doctrine, and very full of comfort, as more largely is expressed in the Homily of Justification."
