This is an exciting time in your life. The next few years will shape your future and your faith. Sadly many people lose touch with church when they come to university rather than see it as opportunity to grow in their faith. Others struggling with the demands of studying for a degree and as they continue to work out what life is all about look to the church for some help.
We aim to be a church that helps to encourage and deepen peoples’ faith and also to engage with the questions that people have.
We are a Church of different ages/backgrounds and nationalities united by Jesus. We would love to support and encourage you in the vibrant activities and opportunities University life offers you.
Come along and talk to one of the older folks in their 70's and 80's: They will pray for you and love you and probably tell you a story from years gone by. Or perhaps you want to try and keep one of the mum's and dad's awake during the Church service after they woke at 4a.m. to look after their sick child. Maybe you want to help out with the children's work or play in the band or just be there week in week out. Whatever you decide we would love to seek God with you.
As Church we have made mistakes over the years, but have learned that Jesus' grace is sufficient. Rather than starting again we have learned to seek God and to understand how we can do better. Come along and join us in the vision God has given us:
“SBC is a local Christ centred community seeking to live together with kindness patience and respect, forgiving one another in love, working out our faith in service; building bridges for God’s grace to all sorts of people”
The church is really close to University in Fleming Road, near the McDonald’s at the bottom of Burgess Road. This is just a few minutes’ walk from the Wessex Lane Halls or a 15 minute walk from Highfield campus. You can also get the bus from Highfield; catch the U1A or U6C.
We look forward to meeting some of you and hope that you soon settle into your life in Southampton. If you need any help you know where we are! For more information please email the church
