BRISTOL CCRC TRUST

A young, diverse and vibrant resourcing church with a vision to play its part in the transformation of society and revitalisation of the church and to engage with people who would not consider themselves to be church-goers in dynamic and relevant ways. They aim to be a community that exists for the benefit of those outside the church.
