General notes on message:
We give in spite of circumstances.
We give with enthusiasm.
We follow through.
We give with enthusiasm.
We follow through.
'So the way to tackle inequality (unfairness) in society is not by force, by laws and rules, or even by guilt tripping and emotional blackmail. The route to transformed society is transformed individuals like you and me. Inspired and motivated by love, sharing our time, our energy and resources, enthusiastically giving, stepping out in faith and acting, even when we have nothing, holding on to God, looking forward in hope of the greater joy to come, and inspiring others to do the same.'

We Value the Power of Prayer
“Supernaturally Transforming Lives and Circumstances”
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” – Philippians 4:6 NIV
As a church we have numerous stories of people who have had prayer answered and seen incredible miracles take place. We have stories of; miraculous healings, miraculous protection from danger and harm, children being born when it seemed impossible, hospitals and orphan’s villages being built in Haiti and many, many more examples that God still answers prayer today and miracles do happen.

Join a Team
“Our Church is not built on the talents and gifts of a few but on the sacrifice of many.” –Brian Houston
The Vine church is as effective as our people. The greatness of our church relies on the heart of our people and their willingness to serve others. Our church functions because ordinary people give their time, talents and energy willingly and cheerfully to serve others.
Joining a team is an excellent way to get connected into the life of our church, make friends and help the church to grow. In fact the growth in health and size of our church depends on every member serving and “doing their own special work”:
“…as each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is growing and full of love.”
Eph.4:16 NLT
