02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

Crow Road Free Church provides means and opportunity for Christians to meet regularly for worship, teaching, discipleship and fellowship by two worship services on a Sunday, including provision of a creche and teaching for nursery age children through to secondary age, and two mid-week meetings. We run various small groups designed for all ages and stages of our attendees, as well as for non-Christians to explore their faith. We aim to reach out and meet the needs of our local community by providing a weekly Warm Space, all run by our own volunteers. We provide support to other individuals and organisations with a similar ethos, both in the UK and overseas.
