We are part of the Watling Valley Ecumenical Partnership which is a diverse family of Christians in the west of Milton Keynes, living with love, giving in grace and moving for mission. Our partnership involves the Baptist Union, Church of England, Methodist Church, the United Reformed Church, and this is reflected in the many different styles of worship. We have five church buildings and a church school, ranging in age from the 12th Century to modern day, and some of these also serve as community centres during the week.
