St Nicolas Earley

St Nicolas Earley St Nicolas Earley; Open to God, Open to One Another, Open to the Community We seek to hold fast to that same calling.

We are a thriving, lively and growing church in the heart of Earley and we welcome visitors and newcomers to any service. We worship the God who is made known to us in the person of Jesus Christ, and we seek to follow Christ as best we can. We acknowledge that Jesus had a particular interest in the poor, the outcast and the marginalised. We have built an open and welcoming space at the St Nicolas

Centre. A place where people can come to worship, meet with friends, attend community groups or hold a party. We have enlarged and refurbished our 1950's hall, connected it to the church. If you would like to give to the work of St Nicolas Church and the running of the St Nicolas Centre you can do so through CAF online https://cafdonate.cafonline.org/5991 #!/DonationDetails #%2FDonationDetails

St Nicolas is a Fairtrade Church and an Accredited Living Wage employer.
