B&A Church is situated just up the Gloucester Road next to the fabulous St Andrews Park. We are a family of missional communities called “little churches” with a central Sunday gathering for celebration, worship and teaching. Having encountered God’s love ourselves we believe HIS love, brought to us in Jesus, can change us and transform entire cities. This isn’t just about turning up for church on Sunday – it’s about being a movement of people beyond Sundays, building communities of love and putting church in touching distance of people’s lives. So we’re not about a building, event or a day – we are about family and connecting with others in an everyday, accessible way. Put simply, we are just an ordinary bunch of people trying to live life to the full, whilst learning to follow Jesus and make it the most important thing we do. We currently have one student little church in Redland. We’d love you to come and join us.
