Introduction to parish

Christ Church, with its modern church centre, serves a parish of mainly working-class homes and there are many under-privileged families in the area. It is multicultural in nature, with significant African, Caribbean and Asian communities.

Christ Church itself is evangelical, open to renewal and we are delighted that our church family, as well as embracing all ages, is increasingly reflecting the cultural diversity of the area.

You will receive a warm welcome on Sundays and at our varied mid-week activities, all of which aim to help us in our vision of becoming a community, embracing all ages, who are devoted to:

God,
Each Other,
Reaching out and enabling people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ.
