As a Church we also believe that we must work on both
our spiritual life and on spreading the gospel. We believe
that the gospel can be most effectively spread by demonstrating
our love and concern for our neighbours, both in our
local community and in the wider world.
As part of
Churches Together In Hitchin
we are helping to support two
schools workers
, who are able to bring Christian input to all the secondary
schools in Hitchin.
We also give our support to many different local, national
and international charities, such as the
BMS World Mission
and
Bible Society
.
In 2007 we started an early morning breakfast bar for
Secondary School children. This runs fives days a week
during term time from 7.45am, and the take up has shown
that this is meeting a significant community need.
We are currently evaluating what further support we
can give to our local community.
Like many Churches we have buildings which are available
at limited times for commercial, charitable and public
service use, provided the use is broadly in line with
the Churches aims.
