A Place To Belong. A Place to Believe. A Place To Become.
Agapé Christian Family Church is an inter-denominational church founded in 1980 in the basement of Gary and Dureen Bradshaw. From these humble beginnings, Agapé has grown to a congregation of 300 with weekly outreach attendance reaching 500.
Inter-denominational simply means we welcome all faiths. You won't find too much religious jargon on our site or anywhere else in the church. Real and relevant is something we aspire to be to the whole world. In a nutshell, we follow what God wants us to do - Accept His love and give it away. Come and see for yourself.
