There are times in everyone's life when there is need for help and support from friends and neighbours. At Christ Church, we try to be a friendly and supportive community, so we have a team of people able to help at times like this. This might include social, home and hospital visits, practical help and spiritual care (prayer, home communion and confidential listening).
If you have need, or know of another member of our church who has need of pastoral care, please contact our Chair of Trustees, Nick Wells chair@christchurchbath.org.
