About

ALIVE

We see Alive as a strategic multi-site church made up of thousands, expressing itself in numerous locations, seeing many people come to faith and equipping people who passionately follow Jesus Christ.

We see a planting church who actively raise leaders and send teams to plant new locations. A church readily working in partnership with other churches and ministries for the advancement of God’s Kingdom.

We see Alive having a heart for the re-evangelisation of the UK, believing we have a significant contribution to make.

Stuart & Irene

Stuart and Irene Bell are the Senior Pastors of ALIVE, having led the church for over 30 years.

Their primary responsibility is to set the vision and values of the church, to oversee their implementation and outworking and to set a teaching programme that promotes and inspires the same within the whole church. They lead the leadership forums and are responsible for the emergence of new leaders.

We see Alive as a KNOWING church. A multi-ethnic, multi-generational church who value all people, ensuring everyone is given an opportunity to know Jesus. We see a body of people who carry the heart and ethos of the church in all age ranges.
