About Causeway Coast Vineyard
Our journey at Causeway Coast Vineyard began in May 1999 with a group of six people who tenaciously guarded the dream that it is possible to live differently in order to make a difference. To this day, we continue to be a community who carry hope and are passionately pursuing God’s heart for His city through our ordinary everyday lives.
We are a church where lives are changing. A place where people are saying ‘yes’ to God and experiencing life in a fresh way. We are a people who bring life to every area in our community. A place where we see transformation happen as we pursue the dreams that God has placed in our hearts.
