About Us
We take the
Bible seriously...
and want to understand it and live by it. We aim to
make our Sunday services accessible to all, with wide
participation. Some of our best learning happens in
small groups – so 6 adult Home Groups meet each week
(including a morning group with a crèche), and age-related
groups for our young people (aged 3 – 18) on Sunday
mornings. For those wanting an introduction to the Christian
faith, a Christianity Explored course is run each autumn.
We take children seriously...
and enjoy them! - and want to
support them and their parents. The St Augustine’s
Playgroup meets each weekday morning. Hippo Babies (Tuesday am) and Hippo Club (Wednesday am – for pre-schoolers) are
hugely popular. We also run a monthly Groundbreakers Club (for
7-11 year olds), and a week-long Holiday Bible Club in the summer
holidays (for 5-11 year olds).
And we take God’s world seriously...
As well as
long-standing missionary links in Asia and Africa, we have focussed in recent years
on
Tearfund, Mission
Aviation Fellowship, A Rocha, Church Mission Society and the
local Asylum-Seekers Centre. In 2004 we became a Fair Trade
church. We participated in the
MakePovertyHistory
campaign of 2005, Stop Climate Chaos in 2006, and continue to support The Micah Challenge's campaign against global poverty.
Lots of serious things – but we hope you’ll also
find St Augustine’s a place of warmth, fun and
laughter. Come and see!
