History
The building is Grade 2 listed situated in the village of Churchill, which is spread along the A38 and A368 at the foot of the Mendip Hills, approximately half-way between Bristol and Weston -super - Mare, an area well known for its scenic beauty.
The church was built in 1880 by Sydney Hill, a local business man and benefactor, as a memorial to his wife and both are interred in a mausoleum along the front of the building. The church interior is traditional and celebrates many aspects of Scripture, particularly in the several ornate stained glass windows.
Facilities and Activities
There is a unisex disabled toilet and the ladies toilets both of which have been refurbished in recent years.
A room named The Oasis, serves as a quiet room for prayer, bible study, small church meetings and study nights for Advent or Lent courses etc.
Adjoining the church is a large hall, once the schoolroom for local children, which now is an invaluable facility for the many church functions and community events that use it.
One most appreciated in the locality is the Thursday Lunches also served from the well-equipped adjoining kitchen, by church members and friends, to 30 or more senior citizens.
The Churchill Girl Guides troop meets regularly as do Rainbows and Cubs.
Monday mornings in term time there is a Toddler Group using the hall and kitchen. The hall is also for hire for parties and community meetings.
Two minibuses, owned by the Churchill & Langford Minibus Society, are kept at the church and are frequently used by church groups.
