Serving at Home

We reach out through all of our own local church programmes, and also alongside all those who seek to rescue lives and transform our community in the light of the gospel. We also support a number of agencies who provide care and who witness to the gospel of God’s goodness:

Downtown Churches Together

During the year a number of the downtown churches meet weekly to pray together. We believe that if we are to bring blessing to the Bangor community it will happen when we walk in unity with each other. At present there are six churches meeting on a weekly basis, but our aim is to extend this number so that we move from being the downtown churches to include all the churches in Bangor, or at least the majority of churches in Bangor.

At present we also organize Christian meetings and activities for Holy week (the week before Easter), we share our evening services in July and August and we organize special events and conferences from time to time.

We believe that we are called to be Kingdom builders and that this will only happen when we learn to walk in fellowship together.
