A little bit about us

A Brief  history of our Church

Grow, Connect, Serve

All Saints goes back to almost to the beginning of the century, for in 1908 it was recorded in St Saviour's Cathedral magazine that "For nearly two years now services have been held in a little building at Allerton (Laboratory) and it I felt that the result justifies further extension."

​

Thus it was the that the first All Saints Church building was erected on what is now number 55 Allerton Road - a small wood and iron building costing nearly 155 pounds, nearly all of which was the profit from a Wild West Show held early in 1908.

​

The old Church building served till the mid 1960s, when the present Hall was built and used as a church. Without a doubt the most momentous development came around 1981, when the decision was taken that All Saints should become a United Church through the Church Unity Commission, and under the auspices of the four Mother Churches: Anglican, Congregational, Methodist and Presbyterian. 

​

Over the years we have expanded in membership and buildings, originally under the leadership of Rev. Peter Parker until 1990. The most recent change and improvement would be the addition of the Auditorium in 2013.

​

Our identity as a United Church reflects our commitment to embracing a broad and inclusive Christian tradition. We are ecumenical at heart, drawing from the rich heritage of our founding denominations while remaining open to the diversity of beliefs and practices that characterize the wider Christian heritage. At All Saints, we prioritize unity in Christ over being doctrinaire. We believe that faith is best nurtured in an environment of mutual respect and understanding, where differing perspectives are welcomed and celebrated as part of the mosaic of our shared journey.​

​

Our style of worship varies, with traditional services held at 09:00 on Thursdays and 07:30 on Sundays, both of which include weekly Holy Communion. In contrast, our 09:00 Sunday service is more contemporary and family-focused.

​

We look forward to welcoming you through our doors.
