Thanks for visiting us today!
We realise that we don’t fit the ‘traditional’ idea of church - the one where you sit in the cold, on a hard seat and stay very quiet. But we believe that worship is a celebration - and our beliefs are ones to be joyful about.
We’re a family church, with a huge congregation - 2000 people regularly attend on a Sunday, split between two services at Solihull, one at 9.00 am and the other at 11.15...and at varying times throughout the day at are many locations across the region.
We also offer a different service on a Sunday evening at 6pm (The Evening Service)..and our Ministry of Power Service on Tuesday Evenings attracts visitors from great distances...many miracles of healing have been reported following our prayers for those with physical or emotional conditions.
We describe our Sunday services as Teaching and Celebration family services. That’s because we preach strong doctrine and you will genuinely embark on a journey of discovery when you join us. Some parts are serious, some are celebration. We’ve got a sense of humour, too, and we expect you to leave us feeling revitalised, refreshed and renewed! |

The doors are open and a lot of people are chatting in the large foyer. The shop is open; and the information desk is manned. The ‘Helping Hands’ trolley is being filled with tinned foods - we each bring a few tins each week and by doing this, we feed 3000 local families in every year.
Pastor Dave is chatting and making everyone feel welcome - his energy is astonishing. Our stewards are beaming - welcoming everyone as they arrive. They look out for unfamiliar faces so that they can be especially welcomed and guided around the church.
The band are on stage and the music begins. Everyone joins in the worship. Pastor Dave has been singing at the top of his voice. Now, he gets up on to the stage, welcomes everyone and begins the teaching. The service includes communion...and there‘s a break to watch ‘Church News’.
During the service, children (of all ages) participate in our children’s programme, called ‘Faithbuilders’.. a great way to have fun and learn! After the service, some people go for coffee or Sunday lunch in our own Coffee Shop - Wilsdon’s. Others get together for fellowship within their ‘Connect’ groups - and others simply go home to family life. |
