THE 11
Welcome to The 11 at Preston Minster
We think Sunday is the best day of the week!
The 11 is our weekly gathering where we lift our eyes and encounter Jesus together.
Whether you’ve been coming to church for years or you’re just exploring faith, you’re completely welcome here.
We believe Jesus changes everything, bringing freedom, purpose and joy to our lives - and Sundays is all about making space for that!
You can expect a relaxed atmosphere, engaging worship, kids and youth ministries and a message that connects real life with the hope we’ve found in Jesus. Doors open at 10:30am for pastries, coffee and the best welcome of the week!
Use the FAQs further down this page to find out more about what to expect.
Looking for something more reflective? Most Sundays, a small group of us also meet at St James’ Church for a peaceful 30-minute traditional service.
