Meadgate church started as a Sunday School in a local house on the newly created Meadgate estate. It was like a mustard seed planted on this new estate that became as the title suggest 'the House that God Built'. It was planted under the auspices of the local parish but was ecumenical in flavour and ethos to serve all the people of the estate. It is now celebrating its fiftieth anniversary. This account has been written as part of that celebration. It shows the hand of God in the life and growth of this church, so that truly it is 'the House that God Built'.
