OUR STORY

 

Senior Pastors Lorna & Duncan Owen

We felt a strong need to move to Epsom (from not very far away) in 2015, and have loved every minute of living here since then! We have thoroughly enjoyed making new friendships and finding opportunities to create community & fun all around our new home. Jesus said "Love your Neighbour", which we've really learned the value of in our new home town... and it turns out it's a great way to live! 

 
We long to help see Communities of Kindness in every street across Epsom & its surrounding areas.
— Duncan & Lorna Owen

 

Why DID WE Start a new church in Epsom?

We were passionate about starting a new church that loves Epsom & creates communities of kindness across the area. Jesus came with a mission to bring 'right' to life's 'wrongs', and we hope this will look like less loneliness, less separation across cultural or financial divides, and with Epsom's wonderful history through the Cluster Hospitals, we hope to see less people struggling with their mental health too! 

 

What's a Vineyard Church?

The South West London Vineyard was the first Vineyard Church in the UK, and was started by John & Eleanor Mumford just over 30 years ago. It is where Duncan & Lorna met and 'The Vineyard' has felt like home & family ever since. We both love the worship, the expectation to meet with & hear from God in our gatherings, and we really value the community that made us feel so welcome. In fact, that's why we're starting a new Vineyard Church in Epsom, so that you can have somewhere that you are so welcome!

Trustees and trustee appointments

The Trustees are responsible for the Financial, Reputational, and Legal functions within our church. It is a legal responsibility of all charities to have trustees.

In the rules that are approved by the charities commission, our trustees are appointed by the whole trustee board, and we look for a range of people with good character, along with professional skills that would complement the rest of the board.

You can contact our trustees by emailing trustees@epsomvineyard.org
