About the church
The chapel in Meare began in 1826 and was originally a Congregational meeting place. When the Congregational Union ceased to exist, it continued as an Independent Evangelical Church, run by its own members.
We are just a small group of ordinary people from different backgrounds, families and places. None of us are perfect or “good” in any way. We believe that anyone can know God’s forgiveness and enter into personal relationship with an extraordinary God through faith in Jesus Christ.
What do we believe ?
We believe that the Bible is God’s guide to life, showing us the way to live a fulfilled life in relationship with the Living God. We believe that when Jesus died on the cross. He took the punishment for all the bad things people have done so that, through faith in Jesus, anyone can know God’s forgiveness and best.
Why ?
The Bible says that God is loving, compassionate and kind. Jesus said that His followers should be known by their love, reflecting the compassion and kindness of Jesus through lives that serve the needs of others in the community and beyond.
