Our Heart
Summer of Impact is an opportunity for us as a church family, to serve our communities and reveal the love of Jesus through practical acts of kindness.
Across the UK, we will come together to support people experiencing homelessness, isolation, displacement, and other challenges, while investing in children, families and local neighbourhoods.
We believe that when we serve others, we reflect God's heart and help bring glimpses of His Kingdom into everyday life.
Whether you can give a few hours or a few days, there is a place for everyone to get involved.
Join us this summer as we bring the stories of Jesus to life, revealing God's Kingdom through simple acts of service, generosity and love.
Where We Serve
No fixed address. Still fully human.
From overlooked to known.
Uprooted doesn't mean forgotten.
Space to grow. Room to thrive.
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.Matthew 25:35-36
