ChristChurch, Mount Pellon

Christ Church is a living, vibrant, active Christian community. We value our family atmosphere, our relationship with God and our outreach into the wider community and world.

A Family Church

Christ Church is first and foremost a family church, in the fullest sense of that word. We are a church that welcomes all people, whatever their age, background or beliefs. Visitors are warmly welcomed, and our services are relaxed and accessible. All members are appreciated for who they are, but are also encouraged to play an appropriate role within the life of Christ Church. Whilst valuing every member, we have a particular focus on young people, and a varied programme for the young people associated with us. In short, it is a place where people feel they belong, and have something to contribute.

A Christ-centred Church

Underlying everything that happens at Christ Church is the recognition that everything we are and have comes from God, and our prime aim is to worship, serve and enjoy him. We do this through worship that is relevant, Spirit-filled, engaging and challenging, through prayer, through Bible-centred preaching and through meeting together in small groups. Our aim is to grow not only in knowledge of God, but more importantly love of God and service of him through the way we live our lives.

An outward-looking Church

God is constantly reaching out to his creation in many different ways, and we want to join in his work in the world. We therefore support his work through tithing of our church income, and being involved in our local community in ways that practically demonstrate God's love for his creation. In particular, we have excellent uniformed organisations linked to church and many run by church members. In other words, we proclaim the good news of Jesus not only in words, but in deeds as well.
