About Great Barr
We are a suburban church on the boundaries of Sandwell. Walsall, and north Birmingham, close to the Scott Arms Shopping Centre. Mostly older people, with a small Sunday School and a small but active group of young people. Our Ladies Fellowship which meets every fortnight is also a large, active and very important part of our fellowship at Great Barr.
We believe that our commitment to mission arises from God's never ending care for his world. By mission we mean any way in which Christians are sent to share love. Sharing God's love involves evangelism, social caring, and the struggle for justice; for us these are imperative, not options. We rejoice that as members of the body of Christ in the Asbury Methodist Circuit at Great Barr, we are called to engage in God's mission. We seek to fulfil this calling by: Nurturing a loving, caring Christian fellowship in which all may feel valued and welcome. Where all may find opportunities for deepening faith, worship and service. Reaching out into the community to identify and serve the social needs of the local people. Finding ways of communicating the challenge of the Gospel and sharing our faith with all but especially young people. Working for the justice, peace and reconciliation in the world Sharing in and supporting by all means possible the work of the Asbury Circuit. Developing and utilising the necessary resources of money, property and personnel, and effective means of communication for the above task in all this work we will collaborate as far as possible with other churches in the area.
