You won’t find Buckshaw Village Church on a map, or using Sat Nav. In the Bible, the word ‘church’ is always used to describe a group of people, not a building – people who believe that Jesus Christ is the most important person in world-history, and that his ‘story’ has the power to transform individual lives and even whole communities, see What We Believe for more on this.

So a small group of us from Buckshaw and nearby have started meeting together on Sundays, and at other times during the week see Meeting Times. As Christians, we want to live out and share the good news of Jesus Christ, working alongside other local groups for the good of the community.

However, a good number of our congregation would not call themselves Christian at present, but still come along on Sundays to find out more about the Jesus of history. For this reason, we aim to make our meetings accessible to everyone, regardless of age, background and any previous experience of ‘church’.

Buckshaw Village Church has the support of Methodist and Anglican churches in Leyland, Chorley and Euxton, and is led by Ken Campbell, an ordained minister in the Church of England. Contact: ken.campbell@BuckshawVillageChurch.org.uk
