Our History

The story of Bell Farm Christian Centre during the difficult times of the 1990's has been recorded in a small booklet entitled "Lightening the Darkness". The story is a powerful testimony as to how God changed the situation on the estate in answer to the prayers of the church.

Bell Farm Christian Centre provides a number of services and activities for the wider community, as a way of expressing the love of God to all people. The support and services, used by over 2,000 people each year, have encouraged many residents and families to develop personal skills and self-confidence, and learn how to help both themselves and each other.
