Welcome to our community
No matter where you are in life, you are always welcome at Edwalton Church.
Whether you’ve attended church in the past and would like to return, or you’re new to the area and looking for a place to worship, we would love to meet you.
You don’t need to believe to join us. You might be curious or have questions, that’s absolutely fine, this is the place to explore faith.
While we enjoy gathering for services on Sundays, there’s a lot going on during the week too. There is something for everyone and a place for you here.
We are also committed to ensuring that children, young people and vulnerable adults are kept safe whilst in our care. This is a fundamental part of our church life. See our safeguarding section for more information.
