About Us
We are a community that looks forward and that seeks to encounter the Divine beyond the confines of the past. And so we are an inclusive and diverse gathering still forming and finding new possibilities. We seek to make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate than ourselves by sharing the abundance that we enjoy.
Our Vision
Faith, Hope & Love
give us an orientation toward the future for all of Creation.
We seek to participate in the unfolding of tomorrow, and to realise a tomorrow that fully embraces all.
What We Do
We maintain the rhythm of Prayer as the heartbeat of community and bring light to others through our Charity in Nepal (IGWR) and our work with low-income families and refuges at home. (Just Manna)
We offer a place of hospitality that seeks to build community.
Who are We?
We are a microcosm, the Good, the Bad and The Ugly. However, we seek our becoming as fully human, and fully alive to the Divine in all life.
So we very much focus on community and see that as a global reality for all people.
Finding Our Faith
When we realise that for the cost of a cup of coffee a day, you can give life to a child.
Then we know we can all make a difference.
We know we can continue the unfolding of creation through the act of giving in Love.
