We meet at:
Regent Hall
275 Oxford Street
London
W1C 2DJ

You can see a map on our contact us page.

What should I expect when I visit the church?

You will receive a very warm welcome particularly from our Welcome Team who will be able to answer your questions and direct you to where you need to go. We have a time of worship with congregational singing with musicians and others helping us recognise God's presence.. We have periods of reflection, when we pray and read the Bible, and our Bible message is brought to us by one of our leadership team or a guest speaker.

Tea, coffee and biscuits are served after the service where there is plenty of time to meet new people and ask more questions.

What happens to the kids at church?

We have a great programme for the kids at Regent Hall for:

Explorers (4-7 years)
Kids Zone (8-10 years)

We also have an active youth group, including Pulse - a Sunday session learning about faith, as well as regularly getting together for worship and just meeting up socially and for sports.

For more information about what happens in the children's and youth work please visit the relevant age groups for you under church life.

Is there a dress code?

Please just be yourself and come dressed in your 'normal' clothes. Some of us wear uniform, but this is a tool we use to make us visible, helping us share the good news of Jesus, and is not mandatory, where as sharing the good news of Jesus is expected for Christians!

Will I have to join in?

Not at all! You are free to simply observe or participate as much as feels comfortable for you.

Useful Links...
