Church

“And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.” Genesis 32:30

At Peniel we want everyone to come face to face with the reality of Jesus Christ. Our message is simple: “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

Peniel is a place where the Gospel is preached. We believe that God has called us to reach the lost with His message of redemption. God gave His Son, Jesus Christ, so that all can be saved from their sin. Our aim is to communicate this message through the preaching and teaching of God’s Word.

We also believe in a God of miracles – Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Every church should be a family. All through the Bible, parallels are drawn between Christianity and the family. God is our Father; the Church is the bride of Christ; Christians are referred to as brothers and sisters.

Peniel Church is one big family with different nationalities, cultures and ages. We are all united by our belief in Jesus Christ as our Saviour and the impact He has had on our lives.

The strong family ethos at the church means visitors are warmly welcomed.

At Peniel there is something for everyone. Like all families we enjoy many activities together: holidays, barbeques, fun days, entertainment.

As well as leisure time, people give time voluntarily to help with the day to day running of the church and the school. Building projects, administration, teaching, cleaning – there’s something for everyone to get involved with.

Many of the staff at the church and school are volunteers who give their time to help further the work of God.

Church services are held every Sunday morning at 10.30am and every Friday evening at 7.30pm and children are welcomed into the main services. We believe church should be for everybody and that everyone has a part to play.
