Our connections
Hope Community Church is just one expression of God’s big church family…
Family
Community Churches Connected is a family of churches across Basingstoke and the surrounding area. We love God, we love each other and we love our town. Having grown from a single church into multiple expressions in different locations, we all share a common history, vision and oversight.
Forge is a collaboration of churches which primarily connects through relationship. This ‘sphere’ covers the south and south east of the UK, and seeks to support each another in developing leadership, strengthening our churches and doing mission together.
Networks
In Basingstoke we are part of One Church and a member of the Evangelical Alliance.
OneChurch Basingstoke supports the local churches by:
encouraging relationships between churches and leaders
coordinating fellowship between churches and leaders
providing information about what is going on in other local churches
building relationships with the local authority of Basingstoke and Deane
supporting Christian ministries within the town
We love partnering with them and other churches across the city. We believe its is through our unity together with others that we will see God’s Kingdom built in Basingstoke.
The Evangelical Alliance exists to unite the UK Church mission and in voice. There are thousands of churches and organisations who are part of the EA, all sharing the same basis of faith which you can read on their website. We love sharing this common ground with others and being united in this nationwide network.
partnerships
Even though we are in Basingstoke, we also know that God is passionate about the whole world. Therefore, some of us get involved with people and projects and other activities overseas. We may not all travel to distant lands, but we encourage everyone to have a big heart for these activities, because God does! We are currently working with some churches in India:
Faith Fellowship, Nashik
New Suna Hospital, Tilda
