History

The Word and Life Network was established in 2003 by the late Pastor Ronnie Barnard to extend the reach of the local church beyond traditional boundaries, inspired by Matthew 5:14, it began as a fellowship of 15 churches and has grown into a network of international churches.

We exist to support and equip Church Leaders to fulfill the vision that every Church should become like a city on a mountain that cannot be hidden.

We value growing together through Godly connections, serving our communities with love and sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ.
