Welcome
We are Christ Church Southport:
We are a church at the heart of Southport, with a heart for Southport. Our vision is that we might impact Southport with God’s unconditional love and transforming power.

EXPLORE ONLINE ALPHA
Just because we are in lockdown does not mean that we cannot be engaged in sharing our faith and helping others find purpose and meaning in Jesus.
We are starting an online Alpha course on 2nd June at 7.30pm.
People who attend the course will still see the Alpha videos as normal and will also be able to discuss the material in groups, just as before. The only difference is that they will be doing it from their home!
Visit our Alpha page here.
Coronavirus
Due to the coronavirus, all church activities are suspended. However, even though we cannot meet physically together, we are creating ways for us to be safe, be connected to God and to each other. Scroll further down this page to see how you can connect.
CCS Home Church is live online every Sunday at 10.30am. There is teaching, worship, interviews and prayer, and a great sense of togetherness. You may even see some familiar faces!
Join with us this Sunday morning on the CCS YouTube channel.
Join us each day, Monday to Friday, with Daily Connect, an online video devotional which comes out around lunchtime, and can be found on the CCS YouTube channel.
There is a reading plan to go with it too.
We have amazing content being put up every day for CCS Minis, Kids and Youth through social media and our YouTube channel.
There is already lots of stuff to keep young people connected with Christ Church throughout the week. You can follow us on Instagram: for Minis and Kids kids_ccs, and for Youth youth_ccs. You can also subscribe to the CCS YouTube channel.

Pastoral Care
Jesus calls us to care for and love each other. Even though we can’t do that face to face for the time being, we want to support you in any way we can during this time. If you are self isolating, please be in contact with Matthew in the office (office@christchurchsouthport.org.uk or 01704 531756) so that we can be in contact with you and see if we can help you in any way. If you are feeling isolated we would encourage you to phone each other and have regular conversations to make each other laugh and give support. So that we can all do that effectively, we would encourage you to make your phone number visible in ChurchSuite, so we can phone each other.
Safeguarding
Christ Church Southport takes its duty and obligation to protect all extremely seriously. We have adopted the national Church of England’s robust procedures and guidelines. You can find out more about the national policies and procedures at the Church Of England website.
If you have any safeguarding concerns or issues on a safeguarding matter then you can find useful contact information at the Diocese of Liverpool website.
Contact Emily Stanford, the safeguarding officer for CCS if you have a concern on 01704 531756, or email emily@christchurchsouthport.org.uk
