The Church: A Growing Community

Our churches are renowned for their warm welcome, which is reflected in their growing membership. We also grow as individuals in supportive friendships, where we all seek something meaningful from life. For example, having a deeper connection with God, making new friends, working together for a common purpose, finding answers to our questions, and more.

Fundamentally, the Church is the body of Christ and the community of God’s people. Jesus showed us how to love and, guided by the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Love, we aim to follow His example. To that end, we offer you hope in Christ so that you, too, will find truth, peace, resilience and be refreshed.

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”

Matthew 11:28

Mission Statement

Our aim is to follow Jesus in every area of our lives.

We do this by:

Being a welcoming church - worshipping and growing in faith together

Praying and learning together

Sharing the good news of Jesus

Serving our community

Associate Priest, John Parker

Hi. I’m Rev. John Parker, associate priest. I support our oversight minister in taking some services and working to reach out to those outside the church.

The Lord’s Prayer

This is the prayer our Saviour, Jesus Christ, gave us.

It is always a great comfort to everyone, wherever they are, in times of trouble.

Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come;
thy will be done;
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
the power and the glory,
for ever and ever.
Amen.

The Church Online

We have had an online presence for many years. However, this grew during the COVID-19 outbreak. Our churches were no exception, and many services were conducted by video. You can view them on our YouTube channel.

Thy Kingdom Come – a global movement.

The Church of England has a free national phone line to provide a simple way for praise and worship to enter people’s homes.  Daily Hope offers music, prayers, reflections, and full worship services at the end of a telephone line.

The line is available 24 hours a day on 0800 804 8044. It has been set up, particularly with those unable to join online services during the period of restrictions in mind, and it’s still in operation now.

Please pass this information on to anyone who would be glad of it.
