Welcome to Our community hub!
Isaiah 58 tells us that true worship means sharing our food with the hungry, giving to those in need, relieving those in misery, and bringing freedom and healing to those who are mistreated and pressed down……because THEN our light will shine out. God’s promise is that he will renew and restore us as we serve and restore others. He says then, “you will be known as repairers of the cities and restorers of communities.”
The Community Hub is a connecting point; a gathering of the fantastic community groups, activities and courses that continue to establish a “busy hive of positive ideals with Christ at the centre” at Central Hall.
