We are a worshipping community, devoted to Jesus and reaching out to others with his goodness, love and power. We aim to have an informal atmosphere in all our meetings and activities, whether on Sunday or during the week.

The Bible is our guide by which we determine everything we believe and do. We believe God speaks to us and guides us through it. Hampreston church is a body in which everyone has a part to play. We expect people to participate in worship and encourage the sharing of testimony and answers to prayer. We believe that God wants us to enjoy Him, that He wants us to be joyful and He gives us joy by the Holy Spirit who leads us into all truth and gives us power and gifts to live our Christian lives.
