In the charity's own words

We are a group of ordinary people living and working in North Dorset believing and trusting in an extraordinary God, who has changed our lives for the better and continues to be involved with each of us as individuals and as a community. The church is a community of people who relate to one another, through their common love of Jesus. It is not a building or an organisation.
