We are a small, loving part of God's family. We worship Him and work with Him to extend His kingdom in this beautiful area of rural Somerset.
Whilst most of our services remain on-line at this time, we intend to hold some services in the building consistent with our COVID assessments and the safety of the church members. The schedule for the services is posted in forthcoming events and on the calendar. See the News section for more details.
The Christmas services planned to be in the church building will be subject to change if the COVID situation dictates that meeting in the building is not in the best interests or safety of the congregation. Changes to the posted schedule will be made to the church calendar and forthcoming events.
If you live in the local area and would like us to pray for you or need someone to talk to or would like some practical help, please email: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
During this time of social distancing, if you would like to join our on-line church services, they will be hosted on Zoom for the time being. Email us to be added to the Sunday Zoom email reminder.
We hope this site will give you some information about God, about us, and what we do and why we do it.
If you are in our part of the world, we hope you will come and visit us. Everyone is welcomed and we enjoy seeing new faces and visitors in our church.
