For 70 years Maybridge Community Church has been actively involved in the Goring By Sea area of Worthing. We are an all-age local church made up of people from all walks of life, but we share a love of Jesus, a desire to follow Him and to show His love to our community. Our church is so much more than Sundays – we do lots during the week and like other churches in Worthing, get involved in things in the town and the wider world.
OUR VISION: To build a vibrant church community that resolutely follows Jesus and extravagantly shares the goodness of God.
OUR VALUES:

* We get stuck in: We’re not content to sit on the side-lines. We believe in going the extra mile to make a difference in our local communities and help empower projects around the world.
* We’re here for you: We believe in doing everything with compassion, focusing our resources on the transformation of our wider community, and being as open and approachable as possible.
* Because: we’re all about Jesus: Jesus is at the heart of everything we do.
