Westcliff Free Church

Our main purpose is to show Jesus to others and reach them for Christ. We do this by prayer, Bible studies, preaching God's Word in our services and outreach through the church's activities (including Sunday School), other church groups, and Christian conferences. The church is also used by the local community for parties, as a polling station, and by groups (e.g. the University of the 3rd Age).
