“T hank you for taking the time to visit our website.

The world is a much smaller place today, thanks to the World Wide Web. We have designed this website with YOU in mind.

crownthornjesusYou may be someone that’s wondering whether or not your life counts, and for what purpose, maybe you’ve just experienced another broken relationship and wondering, “does anyone really care???” OR “what is love anyway?” Perhaps you are relocating to Coventry and are looking for an evangelistic church, where you can realise destiny.

There are many reasons why people visit Christian websites. Whatever your reasons, we have summarised on these pages, who we are, what we are all about and how you can contact us if you want to get involved.

This site however will be no substitute for you experiencing for yourself, what God is doing down at The Potter’s House Christian Church.

Happy Browsing!
