About Us
Portswood is a diverse and lively part of Southampton straddling the inner city and the suburb dominated by the university. With a building on the High Street our heart is to reach our community with the good news of Jesus and the Kingdom of God. Bible teaching, worship, prayer, shared life and small groups are at the heart of what we do because we want to live out our faith in Christ wherever we are - not just in Portswood. Our main Sunday service has an informal feel reflecting our commitment to families, singles, couples, students, and seniors. Join us for a service and stay for coffee, we'll be glad to see you and hope you will share our vision.
