This blog gives you a glimpse into the upcoming Sunday Gathering. It's an opportunity to read through the passage we'll be studying together, pray through some of the liturgy we'll be using, and listen to a selection of the songs we’ll be singing


THE CHURCH - The Essentials

SERMON

This week we'll be starting our new sermon series on the church. Gary Aston will be kicking off the series with an overview of the essentials of the church from Acts 2:42-47. 

LITURGY

CALL TO WORSHIP

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light. 

Once we were not a people, but now we are God's people; once we had not received mercy, but now we have received mercy.

(1 Peter 2:9-10)

MUSIC

  • Jesus is the Lord of All (Olly Knight): A song of praise, celebrating Jesus, the Saviour we gather to worship, asserting his power and authority over all.

  • This I Believe (Hillsong): A song based on the creed, affirming the truths we believe as Christians, that have united Christians throughout history.
