Our Story

Christian Life Ministries (or ‘CLM’ as we are usually known) is a vibrant, multi-national, Pentecostal church, with over 50 different nationalities represented, from across all age groups.

Sunday services provide the main context for corporate worship and teaching, although connection, discipleship and outreach are outworked through a growing number of midweek ministries, meetings and small groups.

The church was founded in Coventry in 1936 and established its first church building on the present site in 1937. Over the years, successive generations purchased additional adjacent pieces of land to give CLM its current footprint in the city centre. In 2010 the church took a huge step of faith and began a major redevelopment of the site and in November 2011, moved into its current facility, ‘The Welcome Centre’. 

We are passionate about seeing God’s kingdom come in our city and beyond through partnership with other churches and Christian organisations. CLM is affiliated to the Assemblies of God Great Britain and the Evangelical Alliance.
