What we believe
We are affiliated to the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC). The core beliefs of the FIEC are summarised in its basis of faith. Churches affiliated to the FIEC share those beliefs.
Our history
We celebrated the 50th anniversary (in September 2007) of the church work being started, although the main building wasn't opened for another five years, in 1962. We're looking forward to celebrating 50 years of Oakwood Chapel itself in 2012.
