About Charis
Charis Church International began in Barry and Linda Manson’s front room and now meets on the first floor of the High Court Chambers building at 24- 26 High Court, Hartshead, Sheffield. The location is in the city centre down High Court which is just off the High Street to the left of Pizza Hut. Click here to view map.
We are a diverse cultural group, including English, Irish, Welsh, Italian, Lithuanian and Pakistani (so far), hence the addition of International to the name. The diversity is fantastic when it comes to having meals together!!!
Our commonality is in discovering the security, identity and destiny that we have found in Jesus Christ.
We believe in God’s empowering presence and purpose in peoples lives to enable each one to reign in life. Rom.5.17.
