WHO WE ARE
MANOR ROAD IS A CHURCH FAMILY SITUATED IN STOUGHTON, GUILDFORD. WE COME FROM A RANGE OF DIFFERENT SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC BACKGROUNDS, DIFFERENT CULTURES AND COUNTRIES, AND DIFFERENT FAMILY BACKGROUNDS. HOWEVER, WE SHARE ONE THING IN COMMON - WE'VE ALL HAD OUR LIVES CHANGED BY THE RISEN JESUS!
IF THAT DOESN'T DESCRIBE YOU YET, YOU'RE NOT SURE WHAT TO MAKE OF JESUS, OR YOU'RE JUST EXPLORING QUESTIONS OF LIFE AND FAITH, DON'T WORRY! YOU WON'T BE THE ONLY ONE ENGAGING WITH THOSE QUESTIONS, AND WE WANT TO OFFER A GRACIOUS AND LOVING SPACE FOR YOU TO DELVE DEEPER.
THE BEST WAY TO UNDERSTAND WHO WE ARE, AND BETTER YET, WHO JESUS IS, IS TO COME AND VISIT. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION ON OUR MISSION AND VISION AS A CHURCH FAMILY PLEASE READ ON BELOW!
