St Barnabas is a growing charismatic evangelical Anglican church prominently placed in a cosmopolitan area close to the centre of Cambridge. We gather lots of people on Sundays across all ages and stages of life, with growing youth, student and young adult communities and lots of families too! St Barnabas is an outward looking church, with an emphasis on every member seeking to reach out to those around them.

The vision for St Barnabas church is that we aspire to be:

Followers of Jesus sharing the goodness of God with everyone.

Our prayer is that this wonderful city of Cambridge knows God’s goodness. To do this we believe, as the early church modelled, that every person is invited to step into following Jesus with the whole of their lives and learn how to share God’s goodness with those around them.

The primary way we seek to do this is through extended families that we call Barnabas Communities. These are communities of people gathered around a common vision to share God’s goodness with those around them. Barnabas Communities are great places to belong, grow, and share. Find out more

Each year we ask God what the particular focus is about within the vision: this year we feel God calling us to push into thinking about what it means to be followers of Jesus.

The call to follow Jesus is a call to be sold out for him. This is a call to let Jesus into every part of our lives - our family, our thinking, our decision making, our finances, our friendships - everything! The call to follow Jesus is a call for him to be Lord of all our life. This year we’re going to be spending time as a church thinking about how we can follow Jesus with everything we have so that we can have confidence in his saving grace as we share our faith with others.

Here’s what some of our church have said about what it means for them to follow Jesus:

We look forward to welcoming you on a Sunday to become a part of this vision to share God’s goodness with Cambridge and beyond!
