Missional Communities

Wednesday evenings Every Wednesday evening we meet together. Once a month this is as a whole church for our monthly prayer gathering, in the church building. On other weeks we meet as small groups in homes, in what we call our "Missional Communities". As Missional Communities, twice a month we look at the Bible together, thinking about what we heard on Sunday and applying it to our lives. We pray for each other and seek to support each other in our faith and our lives. For the other one or two Wednesdays of the month we hang out together as Missional Communities, doing life together and socialising. We encourage friends and colleagues to come along and experience some of what it is to be part of a friendly, loving Christian community whenever possible.

More about Dorton

Buckinghamshire, England

Dorton sits quietly in Buckinghamshire with very little to show for its efforts. The BBG a is trying its best to put on shows, though it can't seem to find much luck lately. It's a bit of a dry spell for the whole area right now. We keep an eye on things so you don't have to wonder where the next gig might be. Even if the town feels a little empty, we're still here to tell you what's going on. There's no need to check a dozen other sites when Near Here has got your back.
