The Church
We are an independent evangelical church, made up of Christians of many ages, nationalities and denominations, meeting in two congregations.
ChristChurch Harpenden meets at Roundwood Park School, Harpenden on Sunday mornings at 10.30am. There is a crèche and activities for young people aged between 3 and 13.
We meet together on Sunday evenings normally at Vaughan Road, Harpenden, although once a month the service is held at Redbourn. We also run a range of activities for all ages throughout the week.
The church is affiliated to the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches and the Evangelical Alliance.
