Meet some people at the Martyrs


SANTOSH
“All religion claim to worship God which everyway possible. I am convinced by the gospels that Jesus Christ is the Lord and Saviour. He is the head of the church and we are his branches. I feel proud to be a Christian for I understand this truth.”

Edgar

DAVID
"Faith is something that is a major support in my life; through the good and bad times. Church really helps me to share and understand my faith better, and from this I can draw strength to live out my life the way that Christ would want me to live."

Amanda
 

EROL
“In today's everyday life there is so much going on, its good to know where you stand and where you fit in. Church provides a place where you can be yourself and worship God with other people and give a direction and purpose to life.”

Edgar

TOM
"Church and Pathfinders is a fun and enjoyable way to learn about God involving other people who you can get to know."

Amanda
 

EDGAR
“Church enables me to switch off from everyday things, and be with like-minded people who are seeking the meaning of life. I used to have a respect for humanist values, but this didn’t give me reasons for why I am here. Jesus and the gospels give me answers that make sense of my life.”

Edgar

AMANDA
“Church is good because I can meet with other people, worship God – and its enjoyable! Being a Christian gives me purpose in my life. I find that God helps me on a daily basis.”

Amanda
 

ROBIN
“Christian faith makes sense when there is so much confusion and different messages out there. It helps me understand myself better, and helps me understand the world better. In church there’s such a mixture of people – in many ways with nothing in common – but with a common faith that makes a real difference.”

Robin

KEVIN
“If you look at society, people hang out with their own groups. In a church, you’re relating to a cross-section of people. Its challenging and much cooler. Any sort of real community has to be a real cross-section of society. Its not always easy, but its worth working at relationships to make them work.”

Kevin
 

PAM
“I have bothered with Church since I was a small child. The Christian Faith has helped me through many crisis. My Church Family are always there for me and it is good to worship in their presence. I find Christmas and Easter especially moving.”

Robin
