I'm New
Braniel Church is simply a group of people gathering to do a few things:
The main thing is to draw close to God in prayers and songs and to share in a time of fellowship and being a community.
We also learn about being a Christian through some teaching from the Bible. We believe the Bible is the main way which God speaks to his people, and so we place great value on hearing it read aloud and finding out how to apply its teaching in our lives.
Once a month we share bread and wine (called “Communion” or “The Lord’s Supper”) to remember Jesus’ death. We welcome all believers in Jesus to join us in this special meal. We also pray for each other and the world – asking God’s spirit to bring healing and wholeness.

Our services on a Sunday are easy to follow and last around an hour or so –words are shown on screens, so you don’t need hymn books or service sheets. If you’re not sure what to do during the service just follow everyone else or, if you prefer, you can just remain seated throughout. No-one will be offended!
A collection is taken during the service, but if you are a visitor please feel free to let the collection plates pass you by. We do not want you to feel you have to give anything! In fact, a lot of our family give their financial gifts to the church through their bank accounts, so you will see that lots of people do not put anything into the bags!
