new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had vanished and

Brentwood United Reformed Church
In the United Reformed Church we seek to explore together something of the meaning and mystery of life. Jesus said "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength and love your neighbor as yourself".
If you want to share that journey into life, why not come and join us? We do not claim to have all the answers but we can grow together in the excitement of the search!

What we stand for
The URC at its foundation affirmed:
The United Reformed Church has been formed in obedience to the call to repent of what has been amiss in the past and to be reconciled. It sees its formation and growth as a part of what God is doing to make his people one, and as a united church will take wherever possible and with all speed, further steps towards the unity of all God's people.
