We are a Pentecostal church for all people. We’re a diverse congregation, every member of which has a unique testimony of what Jesus has done in their life. The vision of this Church is simply to present the gospel of Jesus Christ to the world. We do so through local outreach, preaching, music ministry, and by planting churches.
Our Church is part of a network of Churches, sent from our Mother Church – The Potter’s House Norwich. Churches have been planted across the UK, as well as into Sweden and China.
We are part of Christian Fellowship Ministries, which has over 2,600 churches worldwide.
