Being Christ in the Community Alpha
Who We Are

Harborough Evangelical Church has been part of the local community for over 20 years. We exist to spread the Christian message; that we are all in need of God and being in a relationship with Jesus Christ, His one and only Son. In the Bible, John 3:16 tells us that God loved us so much, that he gave up Jesus (who died for us on a Roman cross) so that we may have ever lasting life! This belief is at the centre of all that we do and all that we are.

We are a church of all ages and backgrounds and see ourselves as a 'family' of believers. We love to welcome new people into our family and show them the love of God.

Our aim as a church is simple: 'being Christ in the community' - in other words to serve the community as Christ served those when he was on the earth. This involves reaching out and allowing God to touch the lives of all those we meet.
