Welcome to St Paul Furzedown.
We are a sacramental people - encountering God in the challenging but joyful work of making communion together.
We are a hopeful people - working to build livable communities through a culture of encouragement and practical action.
We believe that the Gospel offers an unconditional and life-giving invitation to the banquet of God's creation, as well as a call to protect it. We strive to offer holy service to our neighbours and those on the margins. Some of us consider ourselves settled in our faith, whilst others have many unanswered questions about Christianity.
You will find rich worship, spacious spirituality and a warm welcome here. (And because we are people on a journey, we don't always get it right. But we keep going.)
