HEART OF EAST BELFAST
About Us
At Mountpottinger, we’re all about growing together in faith, worship, and service, right here in inner Belfast and beyond.
We know how important prayer is, and we’re here to support you however we can. As part of the East Belfast community, we’re always ready to pray for and help those around us. If there’s something on your mind or heart, just let us know. You can chat with our Minister or Society Steward, drop a note in the prayer box on our railings, or use the form below. Whatever works for you—we’ll handle your request with care and keep it as private as you need.
We’re a community that believes in showing love and support in every way we can—whether that’s spiritual, emotional, or practical. We’re also working to make our church a welcoming space for everyone, with activities, resources, and facilities that help us grow together in faith and love.
