Introduction

St Anselm's Union Church seeks to draw people into a caring Christian fellowship by providing:

Meaningful worship
Study of the gospel
Communal activities
Crèche and childrens programme

We try to do this in a manner that provides opportunity for individual spiritual growth.

St Anselm's is a Christian community seeking to live the positive values of openness, acceptance, affirmation, encouragement and mutual respect. These values, together with the underlying philosophy of working things through with God in mind, are the guiding principles of parish life.
