All Nations Church Bedford

God has been taking Brickhill on an exciting journey over recent years. In October 2011 we saw the addition of another Sunday morning service and since that time we have seen substantial growth with many new people now regularly meeting with us, gathering over 600 people on occasions. Growing a church is not all about numbers - but we count people because people count.


Whilst adding more people into our family is amazing it also presents us with new challenges as we are outgrowing our building. Seeing an increasing number of individuals having their lives transformed by the power of the gospel of Jesus Christ causes us to look to what's next in God's plans. We dare not stay the same. At the same time in South Bedford, God has been positioning Cornerstone Church and their leadership team for change.

As the Brickhill leaders prayed and explored various options for what's next, we felt prompted by God to look at the possibility of multiple sites. We began exploring where such a new site might be established and as we prayerfully investigated, we felt drawn to look at a possible venue in South Bedford.

Sharing our vision with Andy Woodward, then leader of Cornerstone, in the context of an already established relationship with Brickhill and Richard Green, the door opened for this to move forward. When Andy heard where God had led us he felt compelled to share it with his team. With incredible courage and faith they felt it right before God to give themselves to Brickhill and this vision as it was outworked.

Ultimately this has lead us all to the conclusion that we believe it is right to establish a new site at Bedford Academy, on Mile Road in the South Bedford area. The more we have prayed and discussed, the more we have seen God build faith and excitement for this next phase. We truly believe that together we can impact this town with the kingdom of God in even more remarkable ways.

Our new service at Bedford Academy will be launched on Sunday 29th September 2013.
