A service of carols, readings and the gospel message of Jesus as we celebrate his coming to save us, all held by the light of health and safety compliant LED candles (plus a few torches!).
In the final of our Advent series we look at the invitation that God gives us to trust in Him and the Son he sent to save us. Chris speaks on the love that God has for us, despite all our failings, that he sent Jesus to be one of us, live amongst us, and ultimately to die for us.
Karen leads the rest of the service as we share Communion together for the final time this year and Mike leads our sung worship.
Shona leads our All Age service for December, continuing our advent themes. This week we were thinking about Joy. There is a difference between joy with a little “j” and joy with a capital “J”, this Christmastime we need to remember that true Joy (with a capital “J”) can only be achieved by finding Jesus.
Pete and Nick lead our sung worship this week.
Unbelievably we are now in the period of Advent, time to reflect on the period of waiting for Jesus’ coming. As we enter this time for 2025 Chris speaks on the times where God leaves us waiting, in our minds for seemingly no reason. But we are reminded that God doesn’t work on our timing…
This week we were visited by Jim Gourlay from Asia Link. Jim speaks about some of the gospel-spreading work he witnessed when travelling to Nepal earlier in the year and how the church in that country is one of the fastest-growing in the world. As part of that Jim speaks on the story of Zaccheus,…
Continuing our series in the book of Acts, Chris this week speaks on Paul’s travels after the dramatic events in Ephesus. We have seen over the course of his missionary journeys that Paul has partnered with many others, here he prepares to (temporarily!) leave the mission field and return to Jerusalem with a group composed of fellow mission workers from many of the churches he has visited and helped to establish. We see that from the very beginnings of its history the church draws together those from many different backgrounds, social classes, ethnicities, and giftings, all to work as one for the common goal of making Jesus known.
Susan leads the rest of the service as we share Communion together and Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.
This month our all age service coincides with Remembrance Sunday, when we come together as a nation to remember and pray for those who have served and given their lives in conflict. Chris reminds us that only through the cross of Jesus can true peace be obtained.
Mike and Lynne lead our sung worship.
Our series in Acts continues. Last week we saw the Holy Spirit descend powerfully during Paul’s stay in Ephesus, this week we see the response of those in Ephesus unwilling to open up to Paul’s message and renounce their idols. Chris speaks on how as Christians we are called to reject that which society at large holds in high regard, whether that is money, power, position, or anything else that holds us back from embracing the good news of Christ whole-heartedly.
Karen leads the rest of the service as we continue to respond to the Spirit’s powerful presence amongst us. Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.
Today we carried on in our study of the book of Acts, hearing about Paul’s second visit to Ephesus and the extraordinarily powerful way the Spirit fell on the believers in that city. Those that heard the good news were convicted by the Holy Spirit and abandoned the false teachings and practices of their earlier lives. Chris speaks on what a powerfully transforming influence being filled with – and continuing to be filled with – the Holy Spirit can be as we pray for one another in an unusual (but Biblically sound!) way.
Andy leads the rest of the service as we have our final YWAM update and Mike leads our sung worship.
We continue our study in the book of Acts by Chris looking at the second half of chapter 18. In this installment we see Paul partnering with Priscilla and Aquila, leaving Corinth to make a first visit to Ephesus on his way to report back to the churches in Jerusalem and Antioch. We also meet Apollos who was preaching Jesus’ teaching with great passion and eloquence but had yet to hear of the resurrection, Priscilla and Aquila taking him under their wing and preparing him for his own missionary journey to Achaia. How can all of those events speak to us as a church in the 21st century? Well, rather well as it turns out!
Ant leads the rest of the service whilst Pete leads our sung worship.
