We ALL need help sometimes
As we go through life, there are moments when we all need a helping hand. None of us are meant to carry everything on our own, and there is no shame in asking for support — it’s often a quiet sign of courage and the determination to keep going when things feel heavy. We want to help you find what you need, because caring for people is at the heart of what following Jesus is all about.
We believe the deepest source of support, hope, and direction is found in a relationship with God and sharing life with others in a church community like ours. Here, you’ll find people who genuinely care — a place of warmth, love, acceptance, encouragement, and practical help, where no one has to face life alone.
Alongside the care we offer as a church family, we also recommend trusted local partner organisations and professional services who can provide specialist advice and practical support. Together, we want to help you find the right support at the right time.
Below are some local resources that might help, as well as two ways to connect with us directly. You can get in touch using the contact button, or find out when you could join us for a Sunday service — we’d truly love to meet you and get to know you.
Local organisations providing support:
Andover Foodbank
“The food bank was there when we really needed it, it was an absolute lifeline.”
We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That’s why we provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis.
Andover Mind
“1 in 4 of us will experience a mental health problem every year. We are here so you don’t have to face it alone.”
Whatever your situation, there are people ready and willing to help you. It’s important to seek help as soon as possible. Follow this link.
