“Here to serve: Jesus, each other and the community”
Options
We have looked at a range of options for Gleneagles Church. These are:
- To remain at our current size and so continue to fit within Redwell Junior School.
- To move to another community building within our current catchment area.
- To use other church premises in Wellingborough.
- To move to another church building outside Wellingborough.
We concluded from this that the only viable option is for new church / community centre premises to be built within our catchment area.
It should be noted that Bee Bee Developments carried out a survey of community needs in 1996 and the requirement for a church building came in the top four needs identified by the local community. Even non-regular church goers have identified and felt the lack of a recognisable church in the neighbourhood.
