About Sunderland And Boldon Urc
The Sunderland and Boldon Partnership of the URC has been working together since 1983, evolving from an original group of five churches.
Sunderland And Boldon Urc Description
The Sunderland and Boldon Partnership is part of the United Reformed Church which was formed in 1972 by the coming together of Presbyterians and Congregationalists in England and Wales, being joined in 1981 by the Churches of Christ.
The present partnership has had formal links as a Group of Churches for a number of years but developed its present form in the year 2000 with the addition of St George’s URC to what is now known as the Sunderland and Boldon Partnership.
Since then, there has been some transition in that the two city centre churches (West Park and St George’s) have joined to become one congregation (now Stockton Road URC). The West Park site is currently for sale.
The partnership is served by one full time minister and a Church Related Community Worker (CRCW).
