Blessing our Community

At Top Church we want to meet people where they are.

Inclusive


We want Top Church to be an inclusive space that is accessible to all of Dudley – this is a work in progress, and if you would like to join us but have an accessibility need that is not currently being met.

Statement of LGBTQ+ Inclusivity

At Top Church, we believe in a loving, liberating, life-giving God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We are committed to supporting all members in their journey towards living life in their fullest as God intended.

We believe that God’s radically inclusive love excludes no one, and that the diversity of God’s creation is part of what makes it beautiful. You are invited to bring your full self to Top Church, and we’d love to encourage you to serve or lead in any area of the church according to your gifts. Your sexual orientation or gender identity will never disqualify you from any of Top Church’s regular activities.

We are delighted that we'll soon be able to bless marriages and civil partnerships for same sex couples. If you would like to explore what this might look like for you, please get in touch with James or Sarah.

To read Bishop John's open letter to the Diocese of Worcester, in support of the celebration of faithful same-sex relationships by the Church of England, please visit here.

If you have any questions for our team please get in touch.

Place of Welcome

Place of Welcome



Join us on Wednesday afternoons from 1.15-3pm for a hot drink, a biscuit, and a chat.   

Places of Welcome are local spaces where everyone can go for a friendly face, a cup of tea and a conversation if and when they need it.

We operate around these 5 values:

Place
We're open the same time every week, and aim to be accessible and hospitable.

People
Everyone is welcome, regardless of who you are or what your situation is.

Presence
This is a place where we can be present for one another, and actively listen to each other.
 
Provision
We have free refreshments, and provide local information - including a laptop which you can use.

Participation
What are your talents? Whether it's playing chess, knitting, excellent Rumikub skills, or being able to make the perfect brew, we would love you to share something of your skills and experiences!
