‘I am the resurrection and the life.’ John 11:25

We love to celebrate baptisms and weddings at St Andrew’s, occasions for us to celebrate God’s loving presence in our human relationships. Promises this big need to be made in church!  We also provide help at times of sadness through prayer, bereavement support and our funeral ministry.
