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…


we're exploring The Gift of an Imperfect Church.

Church isn't a gathering of people who've got life all figured out. It's a community of imperfect people who choose to journey together—supporting, encouraging and gently helping one another grow.

Reflecting on Ephesians 4, we'll be thinking about how, as we commit ourselves to God and to being a church member, church community can become a place where we begin to repeat, recognise and rework some of the patterns that have shaped our lives, leading to greater growth, healing and freedom. How God can actually use our imperfections as part of the healing process. We'll explore the surprising idea that God doesn't simply work despite our imperfections—he can actually use them as part of the healing process, both in our own lives and in the life of the others.

In the first half of the service, our minister Mike will be interviewing Lisa, who, together with her husband Pete, has been part of our church community for several months. Lisa serves as a hospital chaplain, and Mike will be talking with her about her ministry, her experiences, and a little of her own story.

Everyone is very welcome, whether you're exploring faith, returning to church, or simply curious.

Doors open at 10:00am
Service starts at 10:30am and lasts just over an hour.

If you can't join us in person, you can watch the service live on our YouTube channel

If you're not familiar with our church, we'd encourage you to have a look at the rest of this website. It'll give you a flavour of who we are—an inclusive and affirming community seeking to follow Jesus together. Like every church, we're imperfect, but we hope the website gives you an honest picture of our values, our culture and the journey we're on.

Previous services are also available here if you'd like to get an even better sense of who we are and what we're about.
