If you're new to Ashbourne, new to our church or visiting while on holiday, we thought you might like to know a bit more about us and what happens in our services.
But before any of that, we say a very warm "welcome" to you. We hope you'll feel at home with us.
We're in an exciting time at the moment, as work is underway for a major transformation of our Ashbourne church buildings. If you'd like to know more about what is planned, there's lots more information on The Link page.
Here is the latest update on where our activities are happening...
While the work is happening, our activities will be moving elsewhere, but we’ll be back soon.
