Churches play an essential role in caring for our communities.
Ipswich churches play a key part in the life of our communities through our Top Up Shops, well-being groups, community lunches and so much more. We often see people for their significant life events like weddings and funerals and are known for supporting vulnerable individuals throughout the town.
In recent years we’ve been delighted to see that many of our confirmation candidates have come to faith through first meeting us at one of these community activities.
If you’d like to get involved we’d love to hear from you! Do contact us through inspiring.ipswich@cofesuffolk.org
