Honiton Sovereign Grace Church
at Awliscombe Village Hall
Sundays 10:45am (D.V.)
Honiton Sovereign Grace Church is a gathering of God’s people, who meet under the sound of His Gospel, having come to know the forgiveness of their sins through the blood of Jesus Christ shed upon the cross. God has gathered us under this Gospel by His grace that we might meet as one people, united in Christ, who knowing the love of God as revealed in Christ to His people, seek to worship Him “in spirit and in truth“.
Having gathered to hear the preaching of the Gospel of Christ in Honiton, on Monday nights since 1999, we look to the Lord to bless the preaching of His word, as we now also meet in a public hall on Sunday mornings - this being the first day of the week, on which day Christ rose from the grave having conquered sin and death for His people in order to grant them everlasting life in Him.
These meetings are held at Awliscombe Village Hall at 10.45am on Sunday mornings. Awliscombe is just a couple of miles north of Honiton on the A373 to Cullompton and the village hall is easily found on the right hand side as you enter the village from the Honiton side. A large car park is situated right next to the hall, alongside the Awliscombe Inn, with ample parking space, and the hall has full disabled access, toilets and a kitchen.
The format of the meetings is simple, comprising the reading of God’s word (the Bible), prayer, and listening to the preaching of Christ in His Gospel.
(We would remind visitors to be mindful that this is a worship service in which we approach unto a Holy and Almighty God in due reverence. We approach unto Him through the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the Head of His church, as set forth in 1 Corinthians 11.)

Background to Honiton Sovereign Grace ChurchSince 1999 we have met regularly as group of Christians for the worship of God by hearing the preaching of the
Gospel of Christ in Honiton, at meetings held usually every fortnight at 8pm on Mondays. We also, on occasion, remember the death of the Lord Jesus Christ in
The Lord's Supper. As of Sunday 21st September we now commenced public meetings in Awliscombe on Sunday mornings at 10:45am.
Further details of our meetings (both Sundays and Mondays) can be read on the ‘Honiton Sovereign Grace Meetings’ page and messages from previous meetings can also be downloaded from the same page. See also our sister-website '
The Church in Devon' which is concerned with the proclamation of the Gospel throughout the whole Devon area.
