Southampton Christian Network (SCN) is an informal network of around 80 churches and Christian organisations across Southampton with an evangelical basis of faith, who are united in the conviction that the good news of Jesus is for everyone. The network exists to help churches and organisations in the city work together as one body. We recognise the vital importance of each local church and the work that they do. With this in mind, SCN seeks to serve local churches rather than distracting them from what they are already doing. SCN is led by a team of Christian leaders drawn from the member organisations and is chaired by Paul Finn. As individual followers of Jesus we desire to live in harmony with his teaching and serve him where we live and work. By working alongside one another, we believe we can better represent him to our city and community. You can see our Vision, Values and Basis of Faith here. SCN started in 2005 although its roots can be traced back many years. It arose from a coming together of the Southampton Evangelical Alliance (SEA) and the Joshua Partnership, but represents the partnership of many Christian groups over half a century.
