Welcome to our website, on which we aim to tell you about our church and community here in Winchester. Please read and enjoy our pages.
Our church has its foundation in the Methodist traditions and is one of ten churches in the Winchester and Eastleigh Circuit.
However, we have strong ecumenical links with the other churches serving the northern part of Winchester and seek to serve the whole community in which we are located.
We seek to be a loving, serving, worshipping and witnessing community of Christians. We believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour and recognise both the work and the gifts of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
| Our Mission and Our Vision |

Our mission is:
Loving God, Loving Others, Loving the World.
Our vision is:
A thriving church, an asset to the community, a sign of hope for all.
