The church started in 2001 when a few Leicester-based members of the Birmingham International Church of Christ began to meet weekly in a front room in Leicester. From there the church flourished as it began to meet at the YMCA in East Street, first of all in the Percy Barratt room, and then later downstairs in the main Y-Theatre itself.
The church continues to thrive and grow today, led by a 7 member Leadership Group, all from different walks of life and experiences.
We have a very active Students & Young Professionals Ministry, as well as other local groups in the city centre and in various other parts of the city.
Every Sunday we meet at 11am at the Y-Theatre diagonally opposite Leicester Train Station, at the corner of East Street and Granby Street.
The Leicester Church of Christ is a member of the International Churches of Christ in the British Isles, more information about this group of cooperating churches can be found at www.icoc.org.uk

What We Believe
In short, we are simply Christians who strive to live up to the standard set forth in the New Testament, using the Bible as our authority in favour of man-made traditions.
- There is one true God who reveals himself to the world as The Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14 etc)
- Jesus, the Son of God, is the one and only Lord and Saviour, crucified for our sins and physically resurrected from the dead on the third day (Acts 4:12; 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 etc)
- Rebirth by repentance and baptism for the forgiveness of sins and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:36–41; 1 Peter 3:20–21; Romans 6:3–7 etc)
- The Bible is divinely inspired and sufficient for salvation and is also the constitutional authority for the church’s faith and life (2 Timothy 3:15–17; Romans 15:4 etc)
