Gordano Valley Church (GVC) began in September 1990 and is a church without links to any particular denomination. The initial congregation comprised people from all sorts of Christian backgrounds and many with no particular church affiliation.
In 1994, the church joined with another similar congregation in town called Highdown Church. GVC is an evangelical and charismatic church and we do place a high value on unity and co-operation with other churches in Portishead. We take the Bible as our authority for what we believe, how we live and how we should celebrate as church. |

Our Views on Baptism...As a church we hold to a baptism of believers by full immersion. We firmly believe that anyone who professes a faith can be baptised and for us it's another way of welcoming you into our family. If you want any more information please read the leaflet below or contact Dave ([email protected]).

| ||
Our Views on Communion...We take communion together as a church within the service roughly twice a month as well as in a housegroup setting midweek. Anyone who believes Jesus is Lord is welcome to take the bread and wine. During our sunday services we use non-alcoholic grape juice and have gluten free bread so that everyone is able to take part.
