Church Types

Every one of our over 600 churches in the Diocese of Lincoln, the buildings and the worshipping communities, is valuable, loved and a sign of the presence of God. Each has been nurtured and cared for, and can play a role in the Christian life of greater Lincolnshire . Yet, importantly, each church is not the same. There’s a rich diversity of tradition and worship in these buildings. We see reach and activity, plans and people, of buildings and resources, and a balance of burden and blessing.

In 2021 we invited every church prayerfully, realistically and with openness and energy, to identify its particular calling. We asked what we see ourselves offering in partnership with others, to grow the Kingdom of God in greater Lincolnshire.

Please find more information below of these different types of churches within our diocese.
