The United Reformed Church stands in the mainstream of Christian doctrine and thinking in this country with the local Church being the focus of Christian life and worship.

Emmanuel literally translated means "God with us" hence the name of web site.

• commitment to a programme of prayer, giving and learning in the interests of the worldwide mission activity of the Church, this being channelled through the Council for World Mission.

Whether entry to the Church is as a baby at baptism, or as a young person in our Junior Church or Youth department, or as an adult coming to worship, each person is valued and loved for who they are and as a fellow pilgrim in Christian faith, and we try to live as one strong, worshipping, serving community.
