We are Taunton Vineyard Church, part of the Church here in Taunton.
We are all about Jesus! Everything we do flows from a personal relationship with Him. As we abide in Him, we become more like Him - growing and flourishing through time in His Word, fellowship with other believers, and using the gifts He has given us for His glory.
As part of the wider Vineyard movement - a global family of churches committed to worship, compassion, and equipping the church to do the works of Jesus - we are proud to be rooted in both our local community and a broader vision of kingdom transformation.
