Fenland Community Church

Fenland Community Church

 

A church for everyone including people with Learning difficulties.

We aim to provide a fun and accepting environment for everyone, especially people with a learning disability, to discover that they are unique, special and loved by Jesus, and can chose to respond to Him at their own level.

 

In the past terms such as "Mental Handicapped" or "Mental retardation" have been used.  These terms are now rare, and the term "People with a Learning Difficulty" (or "..learning disability") is used.

Whatever term you use, all humans are unique and loved by God, and that is fundamental to what we do.

"I think your church sounds like the kind of church Jesus would have gone to ... you won't find a church closer to God's heart than yours" - 6th Form Student at Hill's Road, Cambridge. (2010)
