The Bible consistently emphasises the power of kindness. It showcases how kindness can break down barriers, heal wounds, foster forgiveness, and have a lasting impact on individuals and communities.

The Cross represents the ultimate act of sacrifice. We believe that Jesus, the Son of God, willingly gave up his life on a cross to atone for the sins of humanity. This act of selflessness demonstrates the depths of God's love and serves as a model for us to emulate in our own lives. For us, the Cross is not merely a symbol, but a reminder of the central message of our faith - God's love and the offer of salvation through Jesus' sacrifice.
