Who we are
IT'S NOT JUST A CHURCH… it's a movement.
Romans 116 Church exists to renew, restore and rebuild hearts back to God — and to show up for the families around us while we do it.
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.”
— Romans 1:16Where the name comes from
Romans chapter one, verse sixteen. It is the verse the church is named after, and it sets the posture for everything else: unashamed, and convinced that the gospel is for every one — not a certain kind of person who has already got their life in order.
That is why the door is genuinely open on a Saturday morning, and why the outreach work matters as much as the service does.
Vision and values
Three words hold it together
Faith.
The Word, taught plainly and taken seriously. We gather to worship, to pray, and to be changed by what we hear — not just informed by it.
Family.
Nobody does this alone. Every ministry here exists so that a person walking in on their own does not stay on their own.
Freedom.
Come as you are, leave transformed. Freedom is the point of the gospel, and it is what we are asking God for on behalf of this city.
Core beliefs
What we hold to
The Scriptures
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and the final authority for faith and life.
Jesus Christ
We believe in the deity, death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and that salvation is by grace through faith in Him.
The Holy Spirit
We believe the Holy Spirit indwells, empowers and guides every believer.
The Church
We believe the church is a family sent to serve — to renew, restore and rebuild hearts back to God.

Leadership
The people who serve this house
Romans 116 Church is led by a team that treats pastoring as showing up — on a Saturday morning, at a back-to-school festival in August, and at a toy giveaway in December.
If you would like to speak with someone in leadership, the fastest route is to come to the coffee window before a service, or to call the church directly.
A note for the church
Names, roles and short bios still need to be added here. Once you send them through, this section becomes a proper leadership page.
