What is the 'For The One' Initiative?
For The One is our commitment to helping people encounter Jesus. It’s about creating opportunities, spaces, and environments where those who don't yet know Him can explore faith, experience His love, and discover the hope found in Him. At the heart of For The One is a simple question: Who is your one? A friend, family member, colleague, neighbour, or someone God has placed on your heart. Every life matters to God, and every story of faith begins with one person encountering Jesus.Together, we can make a difference for the 'ones' in our lives who are searching, questioning, hurting, or ready to discover the life that Jesus offers.
Primary Goal
100% Engagement
First and foremost, For The One is a discipleship initiative. It is about helping people encounter Jesus and creating opportunities for those who don't yet know Him to explore faith, experience His love, and discover the hope found in Him. Our primary goal is that people across our community would have life-changing encounters with Jesus and take their next step in following Him.

Secondary Goal
£10,000 in generosity
We believe God has entrusted us with spaces that serve the mission of reaching people and making disciples. We will invest in our church by raising £10,000 to care for, renew, and improve our environments—ensuring they are safe, welcoming, and fit for purpose as more people come through our doors. Every pound given towards this £10,000 will be match‑funded, meaning that up to an additional £10,000 will be added, doubling the impact of what we raise.
Our spaces matter because people matter. Well‑cared‑for environments help remove distractions and communicate value to those who walk in for the first time. We are committed to taking shared responsibility for what God has given us. Through initiatives like a Church Clean‑Up Day, we will serve together, strengthening our sense of ownership, unity, and gratitude for the place we call home.
Get Involved
Pray. Invite. Serve. Give.
Pray
Prayer underpins everything we do.We depend on God to open hearts, create opportunities, and give us wisdom to speak clearly and lovingly about Jesus. When we pray for the one, we trust that God is already at work in ways we cannot see.
Invite
Jesus’ invitation was simple and life‑changing: “Come, follow me.”
We want to extend that same invitation—to share with people that Jesus loves them and offers new life. We will equip you and create spaces where those who are curious, searching, or exploring faith can come, belong, and hear more about Him.
Serve
Jesus modelled a life of service.As we serve the people around us—in our homes, workplaces, schools, and community—we reflect His heart. Often, service opens doors for questions, conversations, and deeper relationships. Your service, both in everyday life and within the church, could help create moments where someone encounters Jesus.
Give
When we give, we invest in people. Your generosity helps create environments and spaces where people can feel safe, seen, and welcomed—whether that’s on a Sunday, at Alpha, in the community, or beyond. Giving enables us to remove distractions and create experiences that help people encounter God. For the One is about choosing to live with intention. It’s about believing that one life matters, one invitation matters, one prayer matters, and trusting that God can change everything - starting with the one.
