COMPASSION
Our Vision
Bringing Life to our City
We are an Isaiah 61 church on mission to bring life to our city, to bring hope to the hopeless, bind up the broken-hearted, and set the captives free! Keep reading to see the ways we are being a compassionate church and how you can get involved. We rely on a great team of volunteers to be able to run our projects, so if you’d like to help, we’d love to hear from you. And if you’re in need, we’d love to help – just get in touch with us below.
City Sunday
City Sunday is an opportunity three times a year in our church calendar to serve our communities in practical ways. We don’t host any in-person services on this day. Instead, we host different teams which go out to bless and serve our city.
Our next City Sunday is on Sunday 30th January 2022. Closer to the time you’ll be able to sign up to one of of our awesome teams. Stay tuned!
Love Your Neighbour team
Join our amazing Love Your Neighbour team! Whether picking up shopping, gardening, connecting with someone once a week for a phone call, becoming a prayer partner, or becoming a virtual job coach, it would be amazing if you wanted to join the team and lend a hand. Get in touch below!
Virtual Job Coaching
Our job club no longer meets on a Monday in person – instead, we are offering free one to one coaching to help with job-hunting, navigating universal credit, interview practice, and general confidence-building. Get in touch to be partnered with a coach!
Emergency compassion fund
In Acts 4, we see a beautiful picture of the radically generous early church. What would it look like if we could say of our church community that there are no needy people among us? In this time of continuing financial difficulty for so many, we would love to meet your need. Please get in contact below and we’ll be in touch.
THE HUB
GATHER / CONNECT / BELONG
The Hub is a dream created during lockdown. It’s a gathering place where people from different backgrounds can come together and be known. It’s community. If you are looking for a place to belong, then stop by for a chat and a good cup of coffee every Monday from 11am-2pm. We can’t wait to meet you!
