There are many ways of describing the Linwood Avenue Union Church. People are friendly and caring. They are welcoming. They are accepting and supportive. We are an all age church. We have people in every age group. We’re proud of our ‘oldies’ and our youth.

We are a community church. We belong here. We’ve been in the Bromley – Linwood – Woolston community for nearly 150 years.

Our worship is a mixture of traditional and contemporary… A mixture of formality and informality. We sing good old hymns and great new songs. Most of our services are on ‘power point’ these days.

The church is very relaxed – but you’ll find we are also very committed to following and serving God, everywhere and every day.

We are a multi cultural church. Everybody feels at home. We are a diverse church. Our emphasis is on being a community of faith rather than a community where everybody agrees on everything.

We are a lively church. Lots of groups and activities – organised and spontaneous. We’re busy.

We are outward looking. Especially through the Linwood Avenue Community Corner Trust we seek to meet the needs of the community – assisting people to become fully independent. The trust employs a youth worker and a social worker.
