About Us

Growing Christian Disciples Active in Church and Community

We are part of the wider Greenhouse Trust movement whose aim is to 'Grow Christian Disciples Active in Church and Community.'

We do this primarily by welcoming people of all ages and stages to our home and loving them. Our team at The Greenhouse Christian Centre is made up of over 20 staff who are all here to help serve you and serve the Lord through their work. We are a Christian team who meet together to pray, worship and have fun on a regular basis and we warmly welcome you to come and spend time with us.

"The Greenhouse is a place of prayer and worship. A place of enounter with God. A place where you can grow."

The Greenhouse Blog

Every Thursday we post a blog to encourage and bless you. From musings on spiritual truths to sharing what we have learned from others, team members write from the heart to help you see God's truth for yourself in a new way. Read this weeks here.Read more

Statement of Faith

We believe that Christians are not just called to be saved but to grow in maturity, ready to do good works that God has planned for us to do. We try to help all our guests grow so when they leave us they will be encouraged and activated to serve Jesus. Our programme is built around three key words: Restore, Equip, Connect.Read more

Giving

We are enormously grateful to all of our supporters; you enable real lives to be nurtured and grown. At The Greenhouse we support those most in need, providing them with rest, love, encouragement, training or simply a place to stay. There are three main ways to give to our work below: Bursary Fund, General Fund or Legacy Giving.Read more
