Norwich Area United Reformed Church Mission Partnership (NAURCMP)
We are part of Norwich Area URC Mission Partnership
Along with St Peter’s Jessopp Road (URC/Methodist) LEP, Wroxham and Hoveton URC (The Hub) and Wymondham URC (The Fairland) we formed the first Mission Partnership in the Eastern Synod
The four churches agreed individually to become part of the partnership on 14th July 2025 and on 21st July, met together for a joint service where we affirmed our membership of the partnership. This service was led by Revd Alex Jacob-the Synod Transitional Minister, who has guided us along the journey to this point. The history of that journey can be found in the recording of the service which can be found on You Tube here or an audio version below
Our Mission Partnership Document which was agreed by members of all 4 churches can be found here
In September 2025 Revd Tina Wilson was ordained and inducted as our minister . This service can be found here
