​Who we are...

Brookdale Church is a local group of Christians – that is to say, ordinary people who have put their trust in Jesus and what he did on the cross.  We think God is amazing, and love to come together to Worship Him and hear from His Word, the Bible.  We also are keen to share with other people how great God is, and let people know the good news that anyone who puts their trust in Jesus* will be forgiven and will be friends with God.
* To find out more about what it means to trust in Jesus, take a look at the ‘What we believe’ page, or take a look at this presentation on another website:  Two ways to live
