A BIT ABOUT US

Everything we do at Christ Church Spitalfields is focused on Jesus. Jesus is the name above all names, and his star-breathing, storm-calming, miracle-working power is second to none. Yet he is also a personal friend who knows what we are going through and cares about us. That’s why the Bible also calls him “Immanuel” - which means 'God with us.'

Our mission at Christ Church is to Follow Jesus, Build Life Together and Renew East London.

We believe that Jesus had a radical way of living that saw healing, freedom and renewal. We want the same for our lives and all in East London. We’re committed to becoming like Jesus, learning from him as his apprentices to be a light in our city.

Jesus built a strong and loyal community around him, showing that life is made to do with others. So we’re also building life together, resisting the radical individualism of our culture to pursue relationships with others and follow Jesus together.

The presence of God is transformational. It brings hope, healing and freedom, renewing all that it touches. Jesus’ death on the cross and resurrection means God’s presence is for all and, as followers of Jesus, our mission is to see all find renewal through Jesus. So we’re being courageous in sharing Jesus with everyone, starting with our local area of Tower Hamlets.

If you want to get to know Jesus for yourself or join us on this mission, come along to one of our Sunday gatherings or try Alpha, a course for exploring Christian faith.
