Who are we
What we believe
Life Community Church Storrington (formerly The Community Church Storrington) was started in 1980 by a small group of believers who met in their homes. The church quickly grew and started to meet in Steyning Grammar School in 1985 before moving to Chanctonbury Leisure Centre in March 2021.
Today our church family continues to grow as we work to see the Kingdom of God revealed.
Our Leadership Team
Life Community Church Storrington is led by a team of elders with the support of deacons and the church’s trustees.

Affiliations
Life Community Ministries began in 2018 when Life Community Church Storrington partnered with Life Community Church in Eden Farm, Zambia, and Life Community Church in Migowi, Malawi. Following the leading of the Holy Spirit, these churches determined to partner together around a shared vision, values, culture, and theology.
-
The partnership’s vision is to establish “a family of churches, rooted in grace, equipped by the Holy Spirit, partnering together to make known the love of God and the power of Christ’s kingdom throughout the earth”.
In order to do this, we focus on training and equipping God’s people to serve Him effectively by sharing resources, wisdom, and spiritual gifts. We believe there is great blessing and wisdom in working in partnership, and we are devoted to strengthening God’s church.
There are now more than 15 churches in the Life Community Ministries network, and we are excited to see what God will do next.
