We are a friendly community of people learning to follow the way of Jesus, in Westport, New Zealand. We don't always get it right, but we know that God is greater than our mistakes and failures. 

We believe God works powerfully through his written Word in the Bible and through his Holy Spirit, at work in the lives of all who put their trust in him. We love seeing people's faith grow from the smallest of seeds into something beautiful.

Our church is led by Matt and Jacqui Watts, who joined us in January 2019. They previously led a church in northwest Christchurch.

We are part of the wider Buller Anglican Parish, which includes St Peter's Church  in Granity and Holy Trinity in Karamea.
