A Church For A New Century The church is situated in a busy City centre location.  It is surrounded by a mix of residential, business and retail premises and an equally wide range of social problems. The building was designed to be flexible in order to meet the needs of varying user groups.

Prayer Chapel

On the ground floor, adjacent to the entrance there is a small, round, prayer chapel designed to "enfold" those who enter.  It is a quiet place for prayer and meditation open to all who seek God's presence or just some moments of peace in a busy, rushing world.

Small Meeting Hall

The ground floor also provides a minister's office, a counselling room and a small meeting hall; the remaining space provides an informal gathering area.

Main Hall

On the first floor we have the main hall.  This is suitable for a wide range of uses; it is designed to allow youngsters to enjoy even their more boisterous activities without damaging the surfaces and fittings.  A modern, well equipped kitchen enables meals to be provided.

Sanctuary

The main sanctuary is on the second floor. This has a uniquely styled roof structure that allows light to filter down through the stained glass. The sanctuary has moveable furniture which makes for more flexible use of the area for differing styles of worship and meetings.

Main Staircase

The main staircase is just one of the attractive features of the building, drawing people towards the cross.

Exterior View

The church has been designed to be a beacon of spiritual witness, where God's love and saving grace can be proclaimed to an increasingly busy and secular world.  It is open to all, not only for worship but for different activities during the week.  Our aim is to be a Christian presence in the community, building on the tradition of nearly 200 years of worship on this site and providing accommodation for community activities within this Christian centre.
