Supporting Sanctuary First
You can support our work by making a donation. It is a quick and simple process and you can donate a one off gift, or give a regular amount every month.
We are passionate about offering fresh and engaging ways to connect with people who are unfamiliar, or perhaps all-too-familiar with church, but who wish to interact with prayer, the Bible, spirituality, and one another without feeling under pressure to conform to a stereotype of Christianity. It is important to us to make these resources freely available to be as accessible and inclusive as possible. We also want to maintain a standard of creativity, innovation and quality in our output that helps our resources be attractive, relevant and engaging.

- equip the wider church to participate in digital media and engage with and build vibrant community, through training and consultancy
- produce innovative resources such as teaching themes, poems, reflections, blog posts, podcasts and high quality short films
- put on a range of dynamic events for people to attend in person and to stream online this includes the weekly Coffee Shop, Sunday Live, The Weekly Review and the Friday Jam Sessions.
