The Plant, Manchester and Salford. Growing loving churches.

Plant churches share a common ethos in terms of what happens when they meet. Based on the practice of the earliest churches, our church meetings include the following elements:

• The careful and systematic teaching of a section of the Bible.
• Time to chat with one another about God and what it means in practice to follow Jesus.
• An informal and relaxed atmosphere with a 'family feel'.
• Time spent together in prayer.
• Food enjoyed together as part of the church meeting.
• A deliberate effort to be accessible and welcoming to visitors who are not used to church.
• Getting church members trained and involved in every element of the meetings.
