Pentecost 2022: Thank You, Sorry, Please

In the midst of the Platinum Jubilee weekend we take a short break from our current series and celebrate not only the historic event of Queen Elizabeth II reigning for 70 years but also the even more historic event of Pentecost, the coming of the Holy Spirit, the birthday of the Church. Shona leads us through an all-age service, speaking on where the Holy Spirit is and how we can recognise his work. Chris leads us in our prayers for our nation, prompting us to thank God, say sorry to Him and ask Him for His help in our country and in ourselves.

Pete leads our sung worship this week.

Being an Evangelistic Fellowship

Our series on being a fellowship continues with us discovering how to be an evangelistic fellowship. Chris invites Karl Relton from Countess Free Church in Ely to speak on the evangelism initiatives both he has personally pursued and those that they have pursued as a church. He encourages us that it is not our job to convict people, we simply speak the truth. It is the Spirit’s job to inspire our words in other people.

Chris leads us through the rest of the service with a time of open prayer for our mission of the month, Home Mission, and Mike leads our sung worship.

Building an Evangelistic Fellowship

Our series on building a fellowship continues as Chris this week looks at building an evangelistic fellowship. What does it mean to be an evangelist? What would an evangelistic fellowship look like? We examine how not all evangelists are called to proclaim the gospel from a prominent platform, how we are all evangelists in our own way with the non-Christians that we mix with every day and how we can encourage them in their steps of faith.

Andy leads the rest of the service with music led by Lynne and Mike and communion led by Chris.

Building a Learning Fellowship

Our series on Building a Fellowship continues, this week Chris looks at building a learning fellowship. On the face of it this can seem quite easy, but actually requires us to be accutely attentive and aware. How can we move from people that simply listen to God to people that learn and put what we’ve heard into action?
Shona leads the rest of the service with an update from the BMS Birthday Scheme and Lynne and Mike lead our sung worship.

Try Praying

This week we held our first in-person/Zoom hybrid service. We carry on the theme from our Pentecost service as Chris explains a little more about the Try Praying initiative, how it can affect our walk with God and how it can help others to start that journey.

Pentecost 2021

This week we held our first in-person live service since March 2020. This was held outside due to current COVID restrictions on congregational singing indoors, and therefore the sound quality of this recorded sermon isn’t fantastic. But we hope that you can still get a flavour of what God is saying to us as a church.

COVID-19 and the restrictions that came along with it have changed our lives over the last year whether we like it or not. Chris speaks about the changes that the disciples experienced in their lives since meeting Jesus and applies their thought processes to our constantly changing lives today.

Acts 2 – How to be Added to the Church

This week Chris concludes our series in Acts 2 by looking at how we can be added to the Church, not just locally but on a global scale.
Shona leads the rest of the service bringing us some thoughts on how Christians can respond to Halloween, whilst Ricky brings us his testimony.

Acts 2 – How to Believe

Continuing our Acts 2 series, this week Chris looks at one of the most fundamental, but also often one of the most difficult aspects of being a Christian. How do we believe?
Karen leads the rest of the service, bringing us prayers and a reflection from CSW whilst Mike has chosen the music.

Acts 2 – How to be Baptised

In this week’s service Andrew Dalwood deputises whilst Chris is still away and continues our series in Acts 2 by looking at the act of Baptism in the light of that passage.
Ant leads the rest of the service with contributions from Andy and Ricky and Vanessa who have chosen the music.
