At smallboatbigsea we’re trying to develop a Christian community as a gathering of people who want more from Church than a few pop songs and a long sermon. It’s a place for people who want to develop their Christian spirituality and grow in their faith. It’s a safe space for the creation of community. It’s a commitment to care for the needy and the lonely. It’s table space for the hungry and those who like life tasty with lots of garlic and spice. It’s a new model of church that transcends liturgy and patriarchal leadership. It’s a large, comfy space that fits you.

Food is central. We feature great cuisine, cheap wine, beautiful music from around the world. We place worship and communion back where it began; as a providore’s delight in the middle of the shared table. Participants are invited to join a community who are concerned with global issues; who pray for peace; who work toward the extension of God’s Kingdom around the world; who are committed to truth, justice and mercy; who listen to God’s Word; who feed the poor and take in the lost.
