Update

Meeting together

In line with Government restrictions we are unable to meet together in the usual way at the moment. All our in person services and events have stopped until further notice. We are gathering together online via zoom. If you would like details about how to join us for that, or if you would like to let us know how we can be praying for you during these difficult times, please use the contact page to get in touch.

ARE YOU IN CRISIS AND NEED SUPPORT?

If you are local and need some extra support in the first instance please call NORTH DEVON COUNCIL on 01271 327711. They will ask you about your crisiS and direct you to an agency for the support you need. They are open 9:00am - 5:00pm, Monday to Friday.

Alternatively, until 2nd December, you can get advice about appropriate support agencies from Baptist Church (High Street). We are here Tuesdays and a Fridays - 10:30am - 12:30.

Our values

Walking right with God

We are committed to following Jesus. We believe that the Holy Spirit, the Bible and prayer help us in this. We believe these things shape us and change us. We want to live lives that honour God first. We aren’t perfect. We make mistakes. We say sorry. We keep trying and God helps us. We believe that when our minds, our hearts, our lives are truly tuned in to God's ways, then we will be able to walk right with each other and with others.

Walking right with each other

We are committed to each other. We believe God has called us together in community. We call this community our church family. We are there for each other. We pray for each other and support each other. We are committed to practising hospitality, to listening well to each other, to encouraging each other, to learning from each other in order to embrace all that God has for us in this church family.

Walking right with others

We are committed to our town. We believe God loves Ilfracombe and so do we. We want to encourage and support our town and see it thrive. We are always looking for ways we can reach out into the community to share God’s love - with no strings attached. We partner with other churches in the town looking for ways that we can bless the folks who live, work and holiday in beautiful Ilfracombe. We are committed to walking right with others, through listening, encouraging, showing hospitality, and supporting others wherever we can.
