Who We Are
Haven Church is a friendly, Bible-believing church in the small Cornish fishing village of Gorran Haven. Its services are open to all who wish to worship God and learn more of Him.
As a church we aim to be:
• Growing as a church, both spiritually and numerically
• Sharing the Good News of Jesus with everyone without discrimination
• Engaging with the local community in a variety of ways
• Supporting and assisting those families and individuals who are in need
• Teaching the Bible clearly, accurately and relevantly
• Partnering and supporting our church plant in Funchal, Madeira
Our mission is to share the love of Jesus with the community around us in both word and practical action. We aim to be a force for God’s goodness in our world simply because we have ourselves experienced the grace and kindness of a loving God. We are flawed, imperfect people who are being changed by the transforming power of the gospel. We are a work in progress but have found an anchor in life’s uncertain sea. Just like a ship, a church needs an anchor. That anchor has to be secure and certain - unaffected by time or fashion. Since the formation of Haven Church in the last century, its anchor remains unchanged. The basis upon which this church stands is contained in the Bible, which is the clear and final authority for faith, doctrine and conduct. In the early 1970s, Haven Church freed itself from any denominational bias. A small pastoral oversight committee now administers the church and all maintenance and development costs are largely financed internally.
