We love diversity and are committed to radical inclusion, regardless of age, gender-diversity, sexual orientation, race, disability. We also revel in the insights that deepen our own faiths from working with people of other faiths and none. Our amazing new, multi-purpose Aldersgate centre was rebuilt following the 2009 and 2010 ear

thquakes that destroyed out buildings and killed three people. We have been based back at Aldersgate since Christmas Day 2019. Our very first service in the original stone building was held on Christmas Day, 1864. Our Sunday Gatherings are in Aldersgate Chapel at 10:00am.

Over the 40 Days of Lent from Ash Wednesday to Easter Day, you are invited to engage with 14 questions that Jesus asked his followers during his ministry, selected and interpreted by James Burklo (United Churches of Christ, Simi Valley). The selection "is intended for open-ended, contemplative, prayerful personal meditation and group conversation. The questions are presented out of their contexts in the gospel narratives .. You can fit Jesus' questions into your own contexts, imagining how they address or challenge your own life experience. The questions are... tossed into our minds to break us loose from habits that get in the way of Divine Love. There are no right answers. It may be enoughto mindfully contemplate the questions rathr than trying to answer them!" https://progressivechristianity.org/resource/14-questions-for-lent/.
