About the centre
Reaching out to the community of Worthing with direction, support, help and the love of Jesus.
An open door on Chapel Road
The Coastlands Community Outreach Centre is a shop-front centre in the heart of Worthing, run by Coastlands Church.
We opened our doors because we believe that church shouldn't only happen on a Sunday. Every weekday, our team and volunteers are here to welcome anyone who walks in, whether you need a hot drink and a chat, help finding your way through a difficult situation, or someone to pray with you.
We offer direction, support and help, alongside prayer ministry and Sozo ministry. Many people come to us at a hard moment in life. We hope everyone leaves feeling a little lighter, a little less alone, and with a clearer next step.
You don't need to be a churchgoer, and you don't need to believe what we believe. Everyone is welcome here, just as they are.
What you can expect from us
Welcome
Everyone is welcome, whatever your background, beliefs or situation.
Listening
We take time to listen properly, without judging or rushing you.
Confidentiality
What you share with us stays with us, except where someone may be at risk of harm.
Hope
We believe in a God of miracles, and that no situation is beyond hope.
