We are a diverse church community based in North London. Our mission is to share the love and good news of Jesus.
www.stac.org.uk
We want to grow more and more into the people we’ve been created to be. We believe that we are each created for relationship: with God and with people. We love getting to know God better, and drawing close to him through sung worship, prayer and hearing him speaking to us through the Bible and the Holy Spirit.
On a Sunday, and at other points in the week, we gather and worship God together, but ultimately we want to worship Him with the lives that we live every day. Jesus said that the way we treat other people is the way that we treat Him (Matthew 25:31-46).
We love the Bible and believe it is the handbook for life and the lens through which we interpret the world.
As a church, we believe that God's plan and purpose for us is to become more and more like Jesus (Romans 8:29). As we follow Jesus and experience transformation, the Holy Spirit gives us Jesus-like character and particular gifts for us to help and serve other people. We want to help and encourage each other to be filled with and transformed by the Holy Spirit, so that like Jesus, we might serve and reach out to others in love.
