The Shore Community Church (Bognor Regis Baptist Church)
A bit more...
As a church our vision is “To build spaces of care, love, freedom, creativity and justice in our community: Sacred spaces where our actions nurture wellbeing, wholeness and human flourishing… in Jesus’ Name.”
We choose to be accessible, with a comprehensible vision and purpose…Living this out in an open and inclusive way.
The Shore Community Church’s emerging Wellbeing Project is a primary strategic way in which we seek to implement that vision, helping our community towards emotional, mental, material and spiritual health and wholeness. This “community” includes the regular worshipping congregation, but also the wider community of our town, and we very much see this Project as an expression of Christian mission to express God’s love for all people. Indeed, while the resources and activities of the Wellbeing Project will be available to the existing worshipping congregation, it will emphasise and prioritise connection with the wider community.
The beating heart of our Wellbeing project is the Wellbeing Café. This is the physical hub of the project, where many of the courses, events and meet-ups will take place. Why not drop in, grab a cup of coffee and a slice of cake, and check out the different things we have going on for the project?
What do we do for students?
We have a young person's home group and members of the congregation open up their homes to feed students. Our church does a lot around food...
We also encourage students to get stuck in with the different activities going on in the church. Every half term we have multiple 'Life Groups' going on that run for six weeks. There are different groups ranging from a running group, groups that explore contemplative prayer, and groups that reflect on films/tv series.
We are also in the process of setting up an exciting cafe at the heart of our church building - come and check it out when you're down here!
