"Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Saviour has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord" (Luke 2:10-11, The Bible)
We are a group of ordinary people who've discovered God loves us more than we imagine and deserve.
We believe the message of Jesus Christ - born in Bethlehem 2000 years ago - is the best news in the world, for everyone.
We aim to be an open and friendly church family - committed to one another and serving our local community.

Sundays
We meet on Sunday mornings at 10.30am at Orchard Park Primary School, in north Cambridge.
The service last about an hour and a quarter. And anybody and everybody can come. There’s no dress code, no barriers, no age limit, no conditions, no entry requirements. Everyone is welcome.
During our time together we listen to God speaking to us through the Bible. And we respond together to what he says with songs and prayers. You can join in with as much or a little as you like. During our time together there’s a crèche, Sunday School and 11-14s group – all looked after by DBS-checked church volunteers.
This Autumn we're looking together at the New Testament book of Acts.
It's an eye-witness based account of the amazing spread of the good news of Jesus Christ, starting just a couple of months after Jesus was raised from the dead.
Beginning in Jerusalem, and rippling out to the ends of the earth and down through history to today, adults and children turn to follow the Lord Jesus Christ, have their sins forgiven, receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, and have their lives changed for good, for ever.
Join us, as we listen together and join in with God's great plan to bless the world through Jesus.
As well as meeting on Sundays, we get together in small groups in local homes during the week to read the Bible, help one another connect what God says with our daily lives, care for and pray for one another.
Through board games evenings and barbecues and other events we love helping Orchard Park become a more connected and friendly community.
And, this year, we aim to offer every household in Orchard Park a free copy of John’s gospel. Because we want everyone to discover the eternal life that Jesus offers us all!
