WATFORD CHRISTADELPHIAN ECCLESIA

Our main purpose is to advance the Christian faith through the teachings of the Bible and preaching the gospel. We hold Bible talks, family sessions, praise meetings, Bible study groups and Sunday School at our hall, plus monthly talks at Watford Central Library. We make a regular dispatch of literature on Bible topics, free of charge. We provide spiritual and pastoral care to our members.
