...let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. (Matt. 5:16)

Preston Grange Community Church is made up of people from the estate and nearby. Our aim is to give everyone an opportunity to:

• Discover the reality of God`s love for themselves
• Find God`s purpose for their lives
• Enjoy new life and new hope with others who are also seeking to learn more and share the Good News with others

PGCC  has been meeting in the Community Centre since October 1995 when, in a response to prayer and a vision, we started meeting on the first Sunday of every month  as First Sunday. Since October 1998 there has been worship services every Sunday morning and, from July 2004, we have been known as Preston Grange Community Church.

We believe that God showed us how much he loves us all by sending his only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him

(1 John 4:9).

In the Bible Jesus said that he `came to give us life in all its fullness`, or as older translations read `Abundant Life` (John 10:10). This does not mean a mediocre, just-getting-by existence, but the sort of life that really fulfills and makes a real difference to us and to other around us.

We believe that God has a purpose for everyone and that everyone is important to him. It would be great if we could help you discover new life and your unique position in God`s plan.

We believe that God has not made us to be alone but rather he has given us each other to learn together, rejoice together and share the sad times too. There is no promise of an easy life but there are many promises of hope and strength through the Holy Spirit and through fellowship with one another - this is true community.

On Sunday mornings you can expect a warm welcome in an informal setting and an hour of worship, prayer and praise followed by refreshments and some time to get to know each other better.

You will hear that the Good News of Jesus Christ ia as real today as it was almost 2000 years ago.

There are also opportunities during the week for small groups in homes on the estate where we can study the Bible and discuss what it means to us in the 21st century.

For what I have received I passed on to you as of first  importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures... (1Cor. 15: 3-4)

Preston Grange Community Church is pleased to announce its prayer partnership and fellowship link with the:

Gozo Jesus Centre on the isle of Gozo, near Malta. The connection was established some years ago through 2 members of PGCC who holiday there regularly. Friendships between our 2 churches have steadily grown in that time to the point where we regularly pray for one another in our work for the advancement of God`s Kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord. Please pray for us as we endeavour to share the gospel in our communities. (Our friends in Gozo below)
