Southwood

Church

Southwood Church Meets at Southwood Community Centre, Links Way, Southwood, Farnborough, Hampshire, GU14 0NA. See on a map where Southwood Church meets.

Where and when does Southwood Church meet?

Our main meeting is at 10am on a Sunday in Southwood Community Centre next to Morrison’s Supermarket, Links Way, Southwood, Farnborough, Hampshire. Tea, coffee, children's drinks and biscuits are served after the service.

I am not sure about going to a church - what if I do not know what to do?

No need to worry: at Southwood Church all the words for songs are projected on the wall, and we do not have a 'service book'. The worship leader guides us through each step of the service so no one is worrying whether they are doing the 'right thing'! Some dress smartly, some in jeans and t-shirt. We are a friendly bunch!

What else happens?

We have a good diary of events, from church walks to Alpha (a popular Christian basics course), barbecues, the ACE youth club on Friday evenings and f-ission youth events; Smilers -our baby and toddler group; church parties; Each year around 30 of the Southwood Church family attend the New Wine Christian festival, and Southwood Church is part of the NewWine Network.

I have children - what if they make a noise?!

No problem -we have lots of children and teenagers at Southwood Church, and they are very welcome. We have Sunday School and Youth work (YBS), and under 3s often play at the back on a mat with toys during worship.

Is Southwood Church growing?

Southwood Church has roughly doubled in size over the last three years. We think this is down to good solid Bible teaching and a friendly, kind congregation. It is a good place to be! Children are really important to us because they are part of present and our future. We are committed to being at the heart of our community at Southwood and giving it the best. One of our most valued links in the community is with Southwood Infants School. We are also involved with Southwood Residents Association (set up by Southwood church some years ago), and have good relationships with Rushmoor Borough Council, especially as we work towards the provision of a new Southwood Community Centre for the future.

Is church a bit boring?

ACE Youth Club cafeWe try to make our services fun and interesting, with a good mix of new and familiar things as well as relevant preaching and teaching. We believe church is a place to find truth, fun, excitement, comfort, love and peace.

Is God interested in me though?

You are as important to Him as the Vicar – or anyone at Southwood Church. God would love you to join us.

What actually happens in a service?

Contact Rev Steve Stewart by email • Steve our vicar, or another of our worship team leads     • We sing songs led by our band    • We learn what the Bible has to say     • Someone leads prayers  • Our Healing Ministry Team often prays for those who ask for God's healing    • We have fun together

What is the point?

Christians believe Jesus Christ to be the most important person that ever lived:

 

• What he had to say were the most important words ever spoken     • What he did was the most important thing ever done     • Everything he said and did has huge importance for us today     • Jesus makes knowing God possible     • Jesus is the reason we meet at Southwood Church      • Jesus transforms lives for the good
