Woodlands is an informal church and we have all sorts of people and ages in our congregation. Though it can seem busy on a Sunday, we hope that you will get the message that you matter to us and are welcome, whether ‘just visiting’ or with a desire to get connected.

Sunday church has a sense of celebration, but at Woodlands we see church as community, built from the bottom up via small groups, and clusters (which we call pastorates), which make up our midweek church. These connect into Sunday services and the wider church family in Bristol of which we are a part.

If you want to explore church there are a number of things you can do. Do fill in our 'Visitors Book' on the welcome desk, or online here, so we can write to you and tell you more about the church and invite you to our Newcomers events. These happen every month, and our next one is on the evening of October 12th.  They will give you the history, vision and values of Woodlands Church and point the way to joining a midweek group if you wish.

If you are exploring the Christian faith or are looking again at your Christian foundations, the Alpha course is a great place to begin. This happens on Wednesday evenings at Woodlands and you can turn up unannounced on any Wednesday in October at 7.30 pm.

Thanks for your interest. The Bible teaches us that following Jesus is best done in His family the church, and that everyone matters to Him and everyone’s place in the family is unique.  I hope that we can be useful to you in that process.
