about uS

Plymouth Vineyard is a contemporary church built around relationship, community, discipleship and social action. In plain English that means we focus on being together, centred around Jesus who’s love changes us for the better, a love that spills over into the world around us.

Our vision as a church is to be a community where everyone is welcome, and can “Come home, know God, and love others”. We meet on Sundays and throughout the week in smaller groups, and we would love for you to come and join in.

More About Plymouth Vineyard  

The Church is led by our lead Pastors, Arthur and Sarah Goode, supported by an experienced and gifted leadership team.

We believe that the work of the church is something that everyone joins in with, so the role of leader is more like a coach and an encourager, equipping the saints for works of service. We also love developing and releasing leaders.

We are proud to be a multi-generational and ethnically diverse church, which places a high emphasis on discipleship, community, social action and Kingdom values lived out. We manage two large compassion projects - Children’s Storehouse and Uniform Store Plymouth out of our city centre premises - a converted shop in Plymouth City Centre, and work closely with other churches and secular organisations in so doing.
