A warm welcome to the

Bedford Congress Hall Corps of
The Salvation Army

Bedford Congress Hall is part of The Salvation Army - an international and distinctive part of the universal Christian Church - at work in 115 countries, with more than 1.1 million members and using 175 languages in its worldwide work.

The message and lifestyle we advocate is based on Biblical teaching.

Bedford Congress Hall has been established since 1888 and our mission is to make known the good news about Jesus Christ and to try to reflect His love and kindness in our lives.

Alongside this primary aim, we seek to show practical concern and care for the needs of people and gladly embrace, value and celebrate diversity of race, creed, status, colour, gender and age.

You don't have to be a Salvationist to attend Army meetings...like all church services we're open to all. And don't think we all wear uniform; we don't!

Give it a try; you never know!

If you're a little apprehensive about coming to a Salvation Army hall for the first time there's an easy way to get a flavour of a Salvation Army service. Just come down to the Embankment any Sunday afternoon around 5.00pm from June to September  and listen to one of our open-air meetings.

In this way you don't have to do anything but stand, or sit, and listen to what is happening. As well as lively songs and martial music you'll hear an uplifting message from the Bible that may well help you during the week - then you'll be ready to take the next step; to come and enjoy one of our services at Bedford Congress Hall.
