Public Talks |
Who we are and what we believeThe Parkstone Christadelphian Church has been in Douglas Road, Parkstone, Dorset UK since 1960. The name ‘Christadelphian’ means ‘Brothers and Sisters in Christ’ and we are members of a world-wide community of Christians. We aim to live our life by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, according to the teaching of His followers in the first century AD. We see the Bible as the wholly inspired Word of God and we base all our beliefs on Bible teaching. Central to Christadelphian belief is that Jesus Christ will soon return to the Earth. He will establish the Kingdom of God and grant eternal life to His people – those who have tried to follow Him and His Father. We ask all those who are interested in the Gospel message to study their Bible. It will be our privilege and responsibility to help all those who want to come to a knowledge of Bible truth. MEMORIAL MEETING: Please note that the time for our memorial meeting is 10.30am every Sunday. We then break for refreshments before commencing our public talk at 12.15pm PUBLIC TALKS: The following Sunday afternoon public talks are planned, God willing. All take place at our Douglas Road Hall and start at 12.15pm. (Except where noted) You'll be sure of a warm welcome when you come along!

"Is it enough to be kind and helpful to others? If we generally observe the laws of the land will that mean God will be pleased with us?

What's that special ingredient? Come and find out."
