Our vision is to be a transformational community empowered to courageously reveal Jesus and His kingdom wherever we go. As you look through these pages, we hope you'll get a sense of who we are, and the things that are important to us. If you have any questions, or would like to chat further, drop us an email or give us a call. We'd love to hear from you.
We are living in such uncertain times and the resurgence of COVID-19 can contribute to creating fears and stress for so many people. In the bible the writer to the Hebrews reminds us that we can have an anchor which is hope for our souls, firm and secure (Hebrews 6:19) Despite the buffeting effect of the storms of life, Jesus Christ is the anchor that God has given us to provide ultimate security, love and hope. God doesn't promise us an easy life, free of pain or problems BUT He does promise to be with us and to give us the strength to endure and the hope of a future beyond our natural lives.

For those who would appreciate it we are operating a system of care and support through 'buddying.' This is especially to help support those who are vulnerable and isolated but is a great way of helping maintain a sense of connection and belonging whilst we can't physically meet together. Buddies communicate regularly with one another on the telephone and where possible, through face to face online facilities. Click the image above to email if you are offering to buddy another person or would appreciate the care and support of a buddy.
We have established a virtual prayer room which is currently operating from Sunday - Friday evenings between 8-8.30pm. Those meeting are very happy to pray into anything you are concerned about or struggling with. For details about how to join our virtual prayer room contact Steve Prince at sprince@brooksidechurch.org.uk. Please use the form below to let us have any prayer requests and you can just use your first name to protect your identity if you wish. This is for use across the communities and not just for those who are part of Brookside Church.
If you are in need and have nobody else to help you, please call 0118 9664474 and we will help if we can. |
We are working together with our friends in other churches across our communities in order to support other caring initiatives people are involved with throughout the current crisis.
