We’re really glad you’ve found us

Join us every Sunday at 10.30am

There are lots of churches in Worthing, and we hope you find one that feels like a good fit for you. We know we won’t be right for everyone, but many people who haven’t found what they’re looking for elsewhere have found something here that resonates. We often hear it feels like home.

We’re an inclusive, affirming community that values honesty, curiosity, and open conversation about life and faith. Many here are rethinking inherited beliefs, rediscovering faith, or exploring it for the first time.

If you join us on a Sunday, there’s no pressure. You’re free to come once, now and then, or as often as you like. You won’t be put on the spot. Come as you are, engage at your own pace, and stay for a coffee afterwards if you’d like.

We’re not a busy church, and we’re not flashy—but we try to be real, thoughtful, and kind. You’re very welcome here.

Our Values

Coming up this sunday…


….... THE LONG WAY HOME: The Odyssey and the Teachings of Jesus

Over four weeks, we’ll be travelling alongside Odysseus on his extraordinary journey home and using this ancient story to help us explore something of our own journey with God — leaving what is familiar, getting lost along the way, travelling through the darkness, and discovering what it really means to come home.

This week we begin with: Part 1 – Leaving Home (or not)

We’ll be thinking about Adam and Eve leaving the Garden, Odysseus beginning his long journey home, and our own journey through life — growing into who we were created to be, discovering who we are and who God is, and perhaps learning that true wisdom begins when we realise we were never meant to navigate life alone.

We’ll also be hearing from Hilary about her recent adventure in Wales! (photo is a clue).

Doors open at 10am for a 10.30am start.

If you can’t join us in person, you can watch on our YouTube channel!

And if you miss any part of the series, you can catch up there each week — the four parts overlap and build on one another.

And if you haven't already, why not start The Odyssey? You could read it, listen to an audiobook, or perhaps watch the new Movie. There are also older adaptations available free on YouTube.

This Sunday, the journey begins.
