Wellspring is a midweek morning meeting of people who enjoy being part of an informal Christian community. It’s a place where faith grows, where deep friendships are formed, and the ups and downs of life can be shared.

We aim to provide a sociable and relaxed morning with members coming from different denominations and different villages up and down the Chalke Valley. Includes sung worship, a Christian speaker, and a half hour coffee and cake break with a lot of chatting!.
