Not Ready to Come Yet?

Not everyone is free to come on Sunday, and if you’re new to all this, you might not be ready for it. Don’t give up – you can still connect with us. Our Pastor David loves meeting new people and is always up for a coffee and chat.

Contact him on 07922 170503 and he’ll help you with the next step.

Church is the people

We're the people, not the building

You'll find every stage of life here — from children finding their feet to friends in their 90s with a lifetime of stories. What holds us together isn’t a building – it’s the Person of Jesus Christ, our wonderful Saviour and our glorious Lord.

We're an ordinary, imperfect, wonderfully mixed bunch — families, singles, students, retirees, the curious and the committed. There's room for you exactly as you are.

Loving our community

Faith with its sleeves rolled up

We believe love is something you do. Here's a little of how we try to serve Thatcham and beyond.

West Berkshire Foodbank

A donation basket sits in our foyer all week, and we're a distribution point every Thursday 1–3pm — practical help for neighbours who need it.

West Berkshire Refugee Support

We partner with West Berkshire Refugee Support to welcome and stand alongside those who've had to start life again far from home.

Link to Hope Shoeboxes

Each year we fill shoeboxes with gifts and essentials for families and elderly people across Eastern Europe. A little box, a big hello.
