Openshaw Community Church is roughly 9 years old, launched in 2000 off the back of EDEN Openshaw. Our church includes lively worship, solid teaching and a passion to see transformation in the life of our community and beyond.

We have a local focus but also seek a wider impact as we aim to help tackle broader issues, and to release people to bring positive change in other places. 

At the heart of who we are - and what we do - as a church is Jesus Christ: His life, death, and resurrection, and the hope which He brings to the lives of anyone who will trust Him: the hope of Heaven and Someone to live for in the meantime.

For more information on our programme activities, church life, volunteering or supporting us, please email us at admin@edenopenshaw.co.uk or telephone us on 0161 371 5044.

Love God; Love People; Live God's Purposes

About EDEN Openshaw

The Openshaw Eden Project, which involved a partnership between The Message Trust and The Salvation Army, was launched in August 2000, when a group of volunteers moved into the Toxteth Street Estate and began getting to know the area and people living in it. We quickly found a need to work with young people, and over time developed our work to include many of their younger siblings and parents. Today, we have three weekly Toddler sessions, a Youth Club, Kids Club and an After-School Drop-in which is currently being piloted (Spring Term 2009).         

For more information on our programme activities, volunteering or supporting us, please email us at admin@edenopenshaw.co.uk or telephone us on 0161 371 5044, or go to our external project website.

When do we meet as church?

We meet together for church on Sundays, 11:00am at the Salvation Army Hall (with one or two exceptions so please ring ahead if you want to check), and also in smaller groups in people's homes, usually on Tuesday evenings.

We meet together for many other reasons, including Girls Get Fit (18+), Men's Breakfasts etc, so call us on 0161 371 5044 for more information.
