Welcome!
We are a friendly village church family on the outskirts of Taunton. We seek to build our lives on the teaching in the Bible and to be daily disciples of Jesus.
Though our style of worship is varied (from quieter Communion services to more upbeat Family services) it is also relaxed - you'd be most welcome to turn up at any of our services and see for yourself!
