Local outreach & community activities:

Each week we run a Renew Wellbeing group, a coffee morning, a games afternoon for men, a meal and Bible study for asylum seekers and refugees, and a toddler group. We host a monthly men's breakfast. We are a centre for W Berks Foodbank. We work in a number of local schools, with our sister churches in the town, and with the local Council in civic events throughout the year. Our modern premises are used by numerous local groups.

Other activities & ministries:

At any one time we have 8-10 small groups running throughout the week for Bible study, prayer and mutual support. We run the Alpha Course on a regular basis and this often leads to new small groups forming. We also run occasional bereavement courses. We support a missionary in Ecuador as well as various missions in the UK.

Together with our Pastor, Rev. David Taylor, our deacons form the trustee body of the church.
