We are a growing church family based on the west side of Stafford. We believe in faithfully teaching the bible to all ages. We offer many ways to engage with Christ each week.
Sundays are one of the spaces where we gather every week. We value these times as the whole family comes together to worship and pray, as well as exploring aspects of our everyday lives with a biblical context.
Running alongside our main service, we have dedicated programmes for children and teenagers. These fun and interactive sessions help our young people explore life through the lens of faith
Every Sunday service is streamed live on YouTube, so if you feel turning up in person is too big a step, why not visit us online first? You can also join us ‘down the line’ as all of our services can be accessed at any time through our YouTube channel.

Our children leave midway through our service to go to their various groups where they will study the same bible passage that is preached in the main service. There is also a toddler group for smaller children
