Christ Church & St Peter's Church, Mountsorrel

We are two Anglican parishes who love God and believe that Jesus is risen from the dead. Together we seek to serve the Kingdom of God and the people of Mountsorrel. For a number of years, the parishes have held to the following mission statement: "To know Christ better, and to make Him better known". We also echo the Diocesan Shaped by God vision of looking for growth in number of disciples, depth of discipleship and outreach into our community through loving service of the world. As well as working towards these mission statements, we share the vision of looking for the growth in God's kingdom. We are looking for the signs of where God is at work among us and seeking ways to join in with what God is already doing here. Our two churches differ in style. Christ Church embraces informal forms and styles of worship that appeal to a more contemporary worshipper; whilst at St Peter’s we endeavour to ensure our traditional form of worship, using the Book of Common Prayer, remains authentic and the very best that it can be. We seek to make the most of this distinction and use the differences to create 'unique selling points' for each of our congregations.
