OUR VISION

As a local church, Sheffield Community Church (SCC) is purposefully heading into the future fully committed to reaching people with the Good News and turning them into fully devoted followers of Christ. We are completely committed to His mission. We see a church with hundreds of adults and children from different ethnicities and different walks of life. The church is bursting with life with several mission initiatives focused on trasnforming lives, changing our community and extending the Kingdom of God.

The church we envisage has a strong sense of family. Everyone has value and everyone has a part to play in God's great story. In Acts 2: 41-47 we see how the first church in history changed the world. Our desire is to also be a church that makes history and changes the world. The church we envisage is passionate. Celebrations are hallmarked with exuberant praise, intimate worship and inspiring preaching.
Come and join us! 
 
OUR VALUES
GOSPEL-CENTREDNESS
It all start with the Gospel - Jesus came to teach us, and show us, that there’s more to life—a life more fulfilling than any life apart from Him. This life is available right now, today, and He’s made a way for us to experience it. John 10:10; 14:6; Colossians 2:6-7; 3:17-18. 
 
AUTHENTIC RELATIONSHIPS
We seek to strengthen the relationships within the body of Christ so that God’s people will love, support, and minister to each other. We desire to be a people who have entered into a place of authentic community and caring relationships that promote strong marriages, healthy and families. (Acts 2:44-47; 1Cor.12:12-27).
 
MULTIETHNIC DIVERSITY
People matter to God and therefore they ought to matter to the church. We desire to be a church that has no “walls” separating people culturally, racially, economically, educationally or generationally believing that our expression of the Body of Christ on earth should reflect God’s heart for every nation, kindred, tribe and tongue (Rev. 5:9; 14:6; Acts 11:19-30). 
 
SERVANT LEADERSHIP
The nature of biblical leadership is service. We believe in the value of servant leadership. True spiritual leaders never stop serving. We believe that excellence on our part echoes the excellence of God and honours Him. No task is below those that serve God. Mark 10:45; John 13. 
 
DISCIPLE-MAKING
We believe that for us to fulfil the great commission by evangelism and discipling followers of Christ, we need to build a compelling relational environment through which men and women will have their lives transformed into Christlikeness. We are passionate about faithfulness and fruitfulness in life and and obedience to the Word of God. 2Timothy 2:2; Matthew 28: 19; Philippians 2:20 -22.

Where & when does the church meet?

Our Church meets every Sunday at 10:30am for our Sunday Celebration Service. Aim to arrive 10 minutes early to ensure you get a parking spot in the  secure church Car Park behind the building and seat in time for the service to start in the Main Auditorium. We have Pre-Service prayer time between 09:55am and 10:25am in the Main Auditorium. You are more than welcome to join but please don't feel obliged if you are new. Normally we finish by about 12:15pm  and enjoy refreshments afterwards.

We meet at:

Sheffield Christian Centre
131 Guildford Ave
Sheffield,

You can see a map on our contact us page

There is plenty of  parking available on the site.
 

What should I expect when I visit the church?

You will receive a very warm welcome particularly from our Welcome Team who will be able to answer your questions and direct you to where you need to go.  We normally give notices after opening the Celebration Service with joyous praise songs. There will be approximately 30 mins of singing in total with opportunity for church members to pray or read a passage from the bible or share a prophecy etc. After the singing there will be a preach from one of the  Pastoral Team (or sometimes a guest speaker) with an opportunity to respond at the end of the service.
You'll find a variety of ministries to serve you and/or your family - from the comfort and security of our dynamic and exciting ministry for children, through to the main service for adults. SCC is a place where the whole family can experience God and spiritual growth. We want you to know that wherever you are on your spiritual journey, whether you're just beginning to take a look at Christianity or you already have a mature relationship with Jesus, we're here to help you take the next step spiritually and to offer you a place where you can get involved as much as you can and grow in your walk with God. Church is an inspirational place where you can meet with God.

Refreshments are served after the service where there is plenty of time to meet new people and ask more questions.
 

What happens to the kids at church?

We have a fantastic programme for the kids at the Church for ages 0–11ish. Children stay with their parents at the start of the service as we worship (sing songs!) together for the first part of the morning. An announcement will show up on the screens to let you know when the children need to go to their church in a separate room downstairs. The Children's church team will assist you with registering your children (if it's your first time) and show you where you collect them from after the Celebration Service. 
Our children’s teachers have been CRB checked and are passionate about children. We strive to create a safe and exciting environment for children to learn, develop and grow in their spiritual lives.
For more information about what happens in the children's work please visit the relevant age groups for you under church life.
