In the charity's own words
We seek to spread the Bible's message of Jesus and develop people's knowledge and trust in him. We do this mainly through meetings and events organised by the Church, through its website, or by invitation from schools, radio stations and other organisations. Pastoral care is given to people living in the area. We support Missionary and outreach work in North Shropshire, nationally and worldwide.
