The Farnborough Building Project is moving forward, with updates from Operations Director Calum Field.

Prayers are needed for clarity, wisdom, and a smooth approval process as they work towards the next phase of the project.

Wasn’t it fantastic, last Sunday, to celebrate the £127,000 that we raised in our latest building gift days.

Thank you to everyone that gave.
