Brief History

‘Westgate Christian Fellowship’, is a mixture of the old and the new. We are a small fellowship, evangelical in outlook and open to the leading of the Spirit in the worship meetings. Having our beginnings in the house-church/holiness movement in the late 60′s, we now meet in a fine Baptist chapel in the centre of Exeter.
Along with other believers in the city, we aim on Sundays to hear God’s Word through preaching, to express the truth and our devotion in song – traditional and modern – and to be strengthened to live for God and our neighbour in our daily lives. We endeavour to maintain the fellowship aspect of church life and believe we are a welcoming and friendly company. The Chapel is situated in Bartholomew Street West which is off the South end of Fore Street, Exeter. There are various car parks and parking spaces nearby, regular buses each way in Fore Street 125 metres away. The Original Building was built in 1817. It was used as a Baptist Chapel up to the early sixties when it was sold to a builders merchant and used as storage. The Fellowship purchased the building in 1977 and was completely refurbished and made suitable for use for a church. Nearly all the work was done by church members.
