OUR HISTORY
Founded in 1975 as an outreach from Albion Baptist Church, our first few families met in an old chicken abattoir. From those humble days the church began to meet in various school halls until purchasing the current land in Eatons Hill in 1986. The buildings have continued to evolve as the growing ministry requirements increased.
