Christmas Offering
This December, we're raising money for three charities in our Christmas offering so we can support causes close to our hearts...
Locally we are partnering with InHope, an organisation that helps people overcome the insecurities of homelessness, hunger, addiction and poor mental health.
In the Middle East, we are supporting TearFund's Emergency Appeal as they help local churches provide vital aid to those impacted by the humanitarian crisis in both Gaza and Israel.
Globally we want to help International Justice Mission as they seek to protect people in poverty from violence.
Thank you for your generosity and partnering with Woodlands this Christmas to give to organisations that are well placed to help those in need.

MESSAGES FROM THIS SERIES
Featured
This Same Jesus: Listening to God | Clare Thompson | 22nd October 2023 at 6.30pm
This October, we’re looking at the book of Acts which begins with Jesus ascending to heaven and a promise from angels that this same Jesus will return. The rest of the book depicts the Church carrying on the ministry of 'this same Jesus' in the same way that He had demonstrated the nature of God's Kingdom in his incarnate life.
We are in that great tradition of following and demonstrating that same Jesus, and our series in Acts is something of a blueprint for His Church to follow in our own time as we point to the one who is the same 'yesterday, today and forever.'
Come on the journey with us either in person or on the weekly livestream.
