Explore the journey of North Plymouth Community Church

North Plymouth Community Church started as a whisper in an old baptist building in 1984, after months of hard work of refurbishment. We borrowed numerous places of worship for our services while the purchased building, dated 1882, was being made ready for proper use.

On the first of December 1984, North Plymouth Community Church was officially opened.

We soon outgrew the building and for a few years we met in the local Comprehensive School, as the need for a bigger venue arose. God’s grace upon us allowed us to have the favour of the authorities and the necessary finances to start the work of the new building on our land.

In December 1996, we have had our opening ceremony of the new main church building which served us for about a couple of years until we realised that we needed to think about how to accomodate the growth God was causing among us. So the building knew a significant extension in 1999.

Six years later it became evident that God wanted us to think bigger again. We were in need of a far bigger venue and even other sport facility if we were to cater for the vision He gave us.Various prophetic words have confirmed what the Lord has already put in the heart of our senior leader, Rev. Rob Clift. Since then we have known many times of testing coming our way because of that word. But God has been really good and faithful to us.

He has miraculously provided the money needed to buy the piece of land behind our building. After battling 2 years for planning permission, we finally got it in 2009.

So were are we going from there?

A new building is going to be erected on the site we are on at the moment. It’s a double storey building with the potential to seat comfortably 400 people in the main auditorium upstairs. The groundfloor area will be spacious enough for offices and for the Children ministry of the Worship Centre. You can have a sneak peak of what that building would look like from the drawing below.

We believe God to provide entirely the finances necessary to start and complete the whole thing. We have been able to make everything ready for the new building with regard to drawing and contracting of site work.

Part of the money has already been provided miraculously, and we know the rest will come in God’s perfect timing.

In the meantime, we are not standing still. We are getting things moving, and as the day of writing, the drainage is been put into place. Glory to God!

By the grace of God, we will be able to to knock the building down very soon, and go a step further into God’s destiny for the Worship Centre.

God has taken North Plymouth Community Church on quite a ride since those early days, we are all excited about where He is taking us.

Everything we have received is an answer to prayer. Things that have seemed impossible and unattainable, God has answered each time and in dynamic ways.

Praise be to His name!
