To help us ‘Make Jesus Known in Barlanark and beyond’ we want to be clear on some of the secondary doctrines we will teach from the Bible that we believe are key to how we go about our mission. You don’t need to agree with any of these to know Jesus or be a member of HCCB, but our members all agree not to cause division over these doctrines.

Our mission is to ‘Make Jesus Known in Barlanark and beyond’ and this statement makes clear how we promise to live together as a local church of people on this mission.
