Church on the Bus

The mission of Church on the Bus can be expressed as 3 points:
a) To be a listening ear and offer friendship, shelter, a hot drink, and sandwiches to
vulnerable and sometimes homeless adults.
b) When appropriate, to signpost guests to other agencies or charities which offer
hospitality at other times, or specialist support with issues such as housing, addiction, and
mental health.
c) The one thing which offers a real chance for life change is if our guests could find
faith in Jesus. We seek opportunities to share the gospel with our guests, to plant the seeds
of faith or build on what faith they may already have, then to help them consider linking in
with a local church.

We provide food, friendship, clothing, toiletries, sleeping bags, all with prayer when
requested, to the homeless and disadvantaged. The food consists of soup, sandwiches,
hot drinks, and at Chesterfield, provisions donated by Greggs. Our dedicated volunteers
lead the sessions.
