Central Church (St Philip & St Jacob)

Central is a truly unique church in the city of Bristol. Our members gather from across the city and beyond at St Philip and St Jacob church, which is one of the oldest ecclesiastical meeting places in the city. It has been set apart for worship, prayer and teaching for 850 years. We have a passion to live in the fullness of life that is discovered in true discipleship to Jesus and to be transformed more into the image of God through the active work of the Holy Spirit within us. All are welcome to join us.

Our Sunday morning service is where we gather to worship God, learn from His word, and be equipped by His spirit for mission. It’s informal, friendly and Jesus-centered. We have refreshments after each service, and we share Communion together once a month.

We have children's groups for ages 0-11 and occasional all age services which unpack the Bible in a way that is accessible to young and old.

Safeguarding

At Central we are committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese of Bristol’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
