More about PBCC.
Established around 200 years ago, the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church was founded by John Nelson Darby, one of the most influential Protestant thinkers of the 19th century.
Driven by our hard-working members, we have established a network of enterprises, which, whilst not owned by the Church, exist to support the Community, and local, regional and global communities where our members live, work and serve.
