Ebenezer Chapel (map) & online

Please stay after the service for a bring & share lunch and our annual church meeting.

If you can, please bring something to add to the table. Don’t worry if that’s difficult though - you’re still welcome to stay! Also, to avoid food waste please don’t feel you need to bring too much food, and please take away anything that doesn’t get eaten.

This is an important meeting in which we review the year gone past as well as look ahead. The written reports for the meeting are now available to read by clicking here.

Please make every effort to be there - especially if you are a church member.

Dates for our regular church meetings for 2027 are now available on Churchsuite.

This week BMS are asking us to pray for Creation Stewardship.

At BMS we understand that everything we are and do exists within the provision of God’s creation. We strive to practise good stewardship as an organisation and to collaborate with our supporters and partners to do likewise.
