Welcome to Neighbourhood Chaplains. We believe that loneliness isn't just physical and emotional, it's spiritual.
Our Neighbourhood Chaplains vision is to see churches connecting deeply with the lonely. We want to see hundreds of teams equipped to reach out, thousands of homes and communities connected every month, fresh opportunities for the gospel through word and action and lives transformed as people see the love of Jesus.
Neighbourhood Chaplains connects local churches with their communities in new ways, befriending, and offering practical help towards meeting our neighbour’s physical, emotional and spiritual needs.
Through our training day, operating protocols and membership programme, teams of local Christians are equipped to: make contact with new people in the community; deepen community links, offer practical support and help those in need.
We hope you’ll join the growing number of local churches discovering that Neighbourhood Chaplains has the potential to become one of the most significant tools equipping and enabling local churches to make Jesus known in our nation today!
“I have always felt that the church should be first in line to love its community in word and action. For me, Neighbourhood Chaplaincy means being engaged in the community and being prepared to stand in the gap where there is a need for help and support.” Beverley Bedford, Neighbourhood Chaplains Team Leader, North Devon.
