3. Why?
We are looking to refurbish The Vineyard into a 21st Century building for the church and local community to meet and make 21st century disciples  
Lovingly maintained but no major investment since the early 80s

God’s intention for his community is that we should be a place where the lost, broken and the lonely can find hope, healing and love. Our vision is to rebuild, restore and renew this building to enable us to reach and transform our town with the love of Jesus (Isaiah 61)
