Covenant Service 2022

Each year following the church AGM we reserve the next Sunday as our covenant service to allow us to re-commission our leaders and renew our covenant with each other and with God. This year Chris looks at the role of love in our spiritual gifts and encourages us to show our love of God through exercising them to build up the church.

Susan leads the rest of the service as we re-commit ourselves for the coming year. We also have a time of prayer for the ongoing situation in Ukraine and Pete and Nick lead 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.

Building a Worshipping Fellowship

Chris continues our new series looking at the church’s mission statement with the second statement: building a worshipping fellowship. Just how can our worship inform our day-to-day lives and not just for a couple of hours on a Sunday? How can we move from singing the songs and praying the prayers to actually living out those words?
James leads the rest of the service with Pete leading our sung worship this week.
