 Welcome to Aldersgate.
It may surprise you that in a sea of new churches there is a very special place where tradition and contemporary expressions of the Christian faith exist, intentionally, side by side. That's what we are all about at Aldersgate ~ creating the kind of Christian Community where you will be welcomed and encouraged to find expressions of Christian faith which fit your spirit. We won't pretend to have all the answers, but we will invite you to investigate the questions in a community of mutual support and encouragement.

Creating Contagious Christian Community
Aldersgate is a unique expression of the Kingdom of God in our time. We believe the Spirit of God creates this community among us as we live out these visions together:
C- Cultivate supportive relationships within our faith community
R- Radiate the love of Christ to those in need
E- Elevate our Creator in Worship
A- Allocate our time, treasures and resources for the work of God
T- Translate the good news of Jesus for our time and culture
E- Emulate the life of Christ in our lives
