Denomination: Independent Evangelical
We are a Bible centred Church and our Aim is: "To glorify God and enjoy Him forever in Christ"
We seek to do this by knowing Christ for ourselves & growing in Him through God's Word & the Holy Spirit, and making Him known within our communities, and across the world through our mission support.
We are biblical in our practice & outlook, contemporary in our worship, reformed in our doctrine and welcoming to all......
Trinity is a 'Gathered Church' from many surrounding towns and villages and for a semi-rural location the congregation is remarkably 'international' with all the home nations represented along with an: American, Australian, Dutch, Dannish, Russian, South African, Spanish & Zimbabwean presence!
CHURCH HISTORY & BACKGROUND: Trinity has its roots in the work of Francis Schaeffer and L'Abri and was originally part of the International Presbyterian Church planted in Liss over 30 years ago. The Church became Independant over the issue of having baptistic Elders on the Session of the Church in 2001.
The Church maintains a 'dual practice' in relation to baptism, believing that it is not an issue on which we should divide.
Members of the Church are asked to affirm the FIEC Basis of Belief and Elders are required to be in broad agreement with The Westminster Confession of Faith.
