Finding Faith

Whether you have been a Christian all your life, or are exploring faith for the first time, it can be daunting to know where to turn to find out more about faith or find a supportive christian community. The way we hear from God can vary hugely depending on our personality and background.

In the Anglican church the way we demonstrate our commitment to God as adults or young people is a Confirmation service. This might be something to explore if you are sensing you would like to develop your faith further. 

In day to day life, sometimes simply listening to worship songs or hymns on CD, Spotify and YouTube can help us reflect. 

If you would like a copy of a bible for free please email revd.allright@gmail.com and we can post one to you. Exploring the gospels is a great place to start when finding out about Jesus. The psalms can also speak into difficult circumstances.

Revd Becky also runs enquirer courses and bible study from time to time and we have different home study groups people can join to learn from other christians. To find out more please email revd.allright@gmail.com
