Baptisms 

We had two great services on Sunday morning at EBC. At our 9.30am service we joined in with the dedication of one of our newest members - Hannah Emery - who is less than a year old. It was so lovely to join with her family and friends to say thank you to God for her. She was on her best behaviour and very cute throughout!

Then at 11.15am we had two baptisms. It was amazing to hear Kevin and James tell their stories and to celebrate with them as they were baptised as a sign and symbol of what God has done in their lives.Just this morning I was reading a part of the letter Paul (one of Jesus' first followers) wrote to a bunch of people in Rome. In it he says this "...those who were baptised into Christ Jesus were baptised into his death. We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life." (Romans chapter 6 verses 3 to 4).

As I read it I was reminded of what baptism is all about. It is a symbol of dying to our old life (as we go down into the water) and being raised again into a new life (as we come up out of the water). That's one of the reasons why baptism is such a powerful thing!

God bless

What should I expect on a Sunday Morning?

Sometimes going to a church for the first time can be a little daunting. I promise we won't bite! To help ease any uncertainties below are the answers to some common questions people have before attending a Sunday morning.
 
What do I have to wear?
We are a 'come as you are' sort of people and have no formal dress-code for our Sunday services.
We can assure you that we don't have bouncers on the door vetting your attire!
If you are still not sure, feel free to check out our services on YouTube to have an idea.
 
What time do I need to be there?
At the moment we have one Sunday morning service which starts at 10.00am.
 
On the 4th Sunday of the month we run our All-sorts service which starts at 10:00am.

We would recommend you turn up 10 minutes before the service starts so you have a chance to say hi!
If you have children that need signing in to the children and youth work, they need to be signed in from 9:50am.
 
Parking
There is plenty of parking both out the front and at the back of the building. Just follow the signs!

How safe is my child in your care?
We run separate children and youth work during our 10:00am service, which is run by a group of volunteers who have all been DBS checked.

Children ages 11 and under must be signed in and out by their parent/carer. The youth can sign themselves in and out.
