Whether you are looking for something educational, inspiring or just something to relax with, we’re sure you’ll find something to suit the purpose.

There is a large children’s section with books and DVDs for all age groups.

New material is displayed in the library and listed in the Church newsletter.

Most of the acquisitions each year are from donations and the rest are purchased with a grant from the Church Council. This grant is important because it allows us to make recently published material available, ensuring the Library is kept up-to-date and the collection is more complete.

If you would like to donate some material for the Library, please contact our Librarian, Joy Belling, or just bring it in and leave it with a note that it is a donation. Any Christian or suitable books and audio/visual materials are greatly appreciated, especially if they have been recently published/produced.
