Deeper worship is BACK! Thursday the 2nd of March we will soak in His presence- Christian worship is so much more than what happens in church on a Sunday morning, we are called in Christ to worship God with all of our being! Gathering together in His presence reconnects us in God and with one another so that we can be sent out into the world to join with Christ and his spirit in Gods mission on earth.
Going Deeper helps us to be inspired by Him in Spirit and in truth. Join us at 7.30pm on the 2nd of March as we push in and go Deeper!
