New to Vineyard

Whether you are already following Jesus or are interested in finding out about this Christianity thing, whether you are sceptical and doubting or enthusiastically looking for a new community - you are welcome. This is a place where the hurt and the sick can receive prayer and support, where the bereaved and the lonely can find comfort and companionship.

This is also a place where you can join a team of people who are on a God-given mission to make a difference in the world by feeding the hungry, befriending the lonely, praying for the sick and sharing the fantastic news of Jesus' love and forgiveness.

If you are new to Vineyard, this section is to help you find out more about who we are, what we do, and how to get involved.
