The Ministers, Children & Youth Pastors, and Elders of Witham United Reformed Church condemn all forms of racism and will not tolerate any form of racist behaviour or language. We stand with our Black friends in calling for a complete end to all forms of racial discrimination and injustice, and will not stop until this is achieved.

Service Study Guide
Looking deeper in the Sunday Service Each week our House Groups look deeper into the subject we all follow together during our Sunday services. They are provided with a set of questions to prompt further thought and discussion. We will now be sharing those questions here so that if you are not part of a House Group you will still get the opportunity to follow. The questions will correspond with that weeks coming service, so here is the study to help you expand the service for Sunday 18th April. House Group material preceding 18th April If you would like to

Spring Harvest 2021

Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion – it is a daily process whereby you grow to be more and more like Christ.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing.
