About Us

Friendly

We're a friendly Anglican church on the North Coast of KwaZulu Natal in the Diocese of Natal. Join us for online worship. One God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit: proclaimed in scripture, evident in history and knowable in person!

ACSA

The Anglican Church of Southern Africa (ACSA) remains committed to its work of mission and ministry to speak truth, fight for justice and care for the vulnerable and marginalised. Gender Based Violence remains a scourge in our communities and is abhorrent to ACSA and other members of wider society.

Mission

God's Life, Health & Purpose

We exist as channels for God’s Life, Health & Purpose

Life – New life in Jesus Christ
Health – On-going healing of our souls through the work of the Holy Spirit
Purpose – To love the Father and make his love known to the world

These areas arise out of our understanding of every human being consisting of Body, Soul and Spirit. If we are a church that ministers to every aspect of who we are as humans then we must collectively be channels of God’s LIFE to the human SPIRIT, HEALING to the SOUL and PURPOSE to our BODIES.
