Our history

From a 1968 house church in Winchmore Hill to Chase Family Church Centre today.

Green Dragon Lane, 1968

Our story

1968

A house church

Chase Family Church started out as a house church in a home in Green Dragon Lane, Winchmore Hill, North London. In those days we were known as Winchmore Hill Christian Fellowship.

1990s

Enfield Grammar

As the church grew it moved to progressively larger hired premises. From the early 1990s our Sunday morning meetings were held in the main hall of Enfield Grammar School.

2002

St Paul's Centre

We began leasing part of the St Paul's Centre in Enfield Town as a meeting hall and church office, with more midweek activities, a rehearsal room for the worship team and a base for Firestorm.

2008

A new name

We adopted the name Chase Family Church, reflecting the family ethos the church has kept as it has grown.

2011

Shirley Hall

God provided the premises at Shirley Hall, a former Brethren Assembly one street away from St Paul's. After a major refurbishment we moved in on 1 September.

2020

Home in Shirley Road

We stopped meeting at the Grammar School when the COVID-19 pandemic hit. Since restrictions eased, we've met at Shirley Hall on Sundays.

The church is the people, not a building. It's an organism, not an organisation.
