CHRIST CHURCH SAFFRON WALDEN

WHERE
Saffron Walden is a market town of 17,000 people situated between Cambridge and London. It was recently named the best place to live in the UK by The Sunday Times.
LEAD PASTOR
Tim Chapman spent 6 years as a soldier before training for ministry. After serving as Assistant Minister at All Saints Little Shelford, Tim was sent out in 2006 to plant Christ Church South Cambs. Tim is married to Lucy who also serves on staff at CCSC. They have 3 adult children. Tim is stepping down from leading CCSC in December 2025 to help launch Christ Church Saffron Walden.
LAUNCH TEAM
We have a committed united team of 14 adults with a heart to see the gospel take root in Saffron Walden. We are praying for 5 more households to join us before we launch in January 2026.
