We are a community of believers who come together to follow the teachings of the Bible and spread the message of God’s love. Along the way, we learn and share, we sing and laugh, we roll up our sleeves and get involved, and sometimes, we’re quietly still in the presence of God. We are a Church with open doors and open hearts. Within our congregation are people at every stage of faith. We welcome those seeking God and his truths, regardless of questions, baggage or plain old life experiences.

What we believe
We are a body of Christians who follow the example and teachings of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. We believe that the Bible is the true and living Word of God. It is an amazing account of God’s faithfulness and love for all of us, and a manual for how to live life. (See full Statement of Faith below). As a newcomer to our Church, and quite possibly to the Christian faith, we realise this may be a lot to comprehend. The good news is that you don’t have to experience it alone. Whatever your level of understanding or faith, we’ll guide you through the greatest story of all time.

Vision and Mission
Our vision to love God, to be a spirit filled people committed to show the love of Jesus, express our servant hearts to the world and grow the Church. (1 Chronicles 4:10)

Our Mission
“I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it” (Matthew 16:18)
To outreach to the English speaking people in Javea who seek a relationship with Jesus (Alpha)
​To make Disciples of the whole Fellowship through teaching and example (Freedom In Christ)
To develop a strong bond of love between members of the fellowship
To be a fellowship that understands and uses the Gifts of the Spirit

In all things to be led by the Holy Spirit, and express the truth that Jesus Christ is Lord.

Statement of Faith
1. THE BIBLE - We believe the Bible, as originally given, to be without error; the inspired and infallible Word of God and the final authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
2. THE TRINITY - We believe that the Godhead exists co-equally and co-eternally in three Persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit and that these three are one God, sovereign in creation, providence and redemption.
3. THE SAVIOUR - We believe in the true deity and humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ; in His virgin birth; in His sinless life, authoritative teaching, substitutionary and atoning sacrifice, bodily resurrection, ascension to the right hand of the Father, heavenly intercession and in His second coming, physically and visibly, to reign in power and glory.
4. THE HOLY SPIRIT - We believe in the deity of the Holy Spirit and the necessity of His work in conviction of sin, repentance, regeneration and sanctification, and that the believer is promised an endowment of power through the baptism in the Holy Spirit with signs following. This empowerment enables believers to fulfil the ministry of the church in worship, evangelism and service.
5. MANKIND - We believe in the universal sinfulness of all men since the Fall, rendering mankind subject to God's judgement.

6. SALVATION - We believe in the necessity for salvation through repentance towards God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ by which the sinner is pardoned and accepted as righteous in God's sight. This is a gift of grace through the atoning work of Christ.
7. THE CHURCH - We believe in the spiritual unity and the priesthood of all believers in Christ and that these comprise the universal Church, the Body of Christ.
8. THE MINISTRY - We believe in the ministries that Christ has set in His Church through apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers and in the present operation of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit according to the New Testament.
9. THE ORDINANCES - We believe in the baptism of believers by immersion in water in obedience to the command of Christ and in the commemoration of Christ's death by the observance of the Lord's Supper until His return.
10. THE COMMISSION - We believe that the Church is commissioned to preach the gospel to the world and to fulfil a ministry of healing and deliverance to the spiritual and physical needs of mankind.
11. THE FUTURE STATE - We believe in the resurrection of the dead and in the final judgement of the world, the eternal and conscious happiness of the righteous and the eternal conscious punishment of the wicked.
