We
want to work with Him through ministry to bring
wholeness in body, mind & spirit. We seek to discern
His will for our lives and strive to be obedient through
life-long discipleship within a loving church family. We
strive to present the good news of Jesus is in a way
that is relaxed, informal & relevant to the modern
world. And aim to help people develop relationships with
God & one another. Whitefriars has informal modern
worship, active home groups, prayer triplets, youth
& children's work, bible-based teaching and a
friendly atmosphere.
Whitefriars Church exists to worship and serve God. We have been specially
called to the Whitefriars area but recognise that our influence extends to our
homes, neighbourhoods, schools and places of work.
Whitefriars church is for everybody!
- Old or young
- Single or married
- Whether you've been involved with a church
or not - you are welcome
Whitefriars exists to grow together in the Christian faith by
- living the way Jesus taught us
- taking God's word seriously, as
written in the bible
- seeking to be filled by the Holy Spirit, and to use his
gifts
- belonging to God's wider church in the world
- telling other people about the fantastic change Jesus brings
Our main aims are:
- TO TELL PEOPLE ABOUT JESUS AND ENCOURAGE THEM TO FOLLOW HIM
Using
our actions as well as our words, we seek to make the Christian faith attractive
and accessible to others, so that whether married or single, young or old and no
matter what background, people may experience a life-changing encounter with
Jesus Christ.
- TO GROW TOGETHER IN THE CHRISTIAN FAITH
Through teaching the
bible, worshipping together and forming honest relationships we seek to build a
loving, servant community in which individuals will reach maturity in Christ.
- TO ENCOURAGE AND HELP OTHER CHRISTIANS
We celebrate our unity of
purpose with other Christian churches in our joint mission with the Holy Spirit
to grow the Kingdom of God.
