Ebenezer Chapel & Online (map)

On Sunday we’re meeting to worship at the chapel and online as usual.

We’ll be continuing our Lent series, using Genesis 4 and Matthew 18 to think about a hunger for holiness.

Sunday Club will be meeting for the children and youth, and will be focussing on the Lord’s Prayer.

Don’t forget that alongside the Sunday services you can also join us for our ecumenical Lent Groups (see below) and download the Lectio 365 app for daily prayer reflections following the same themes. Click here for more information about the resources.

Thanks to everyone who joined one of our Lent groups last week. It’s not too late to join if you haven’t already. Every week there will be a short video followed by space to think reflect and discuss together. The sessions will be repeated, so there’s no need to come on both days!

Fri 6th March  |  11am & 7pm

This year’s services for the World Day of Prayer will be held at the Methodist Church. The service has been written by Christian women from Nigeria, and the theme is ‘I Will Give You Rest, Come.’ It will be repeated at 11am and 7pm. All are welcome.

In this digital age we are spending more and more time online.  How do we keep safe online?  How do we recognise when we are being scammed and what do we do when we have concerns?

These are some of the questions that Devon and Cornwall Police will help us with in session 1 of our Crime Prevention Morning (held as part of The Meeting Place on that day). Then, following a coffee break, we will spend a bit of time thinking generally about preventing crime and how we can keep safe when we are in our homes or out and about.

All are welcome - please feel free to invite friends & neighbours who would find it helpful.

This week BMS are asking us to pray for 'Hope for the Journey'. They write:

Your support provides help for the journey for those leaving home. Pray for leaders of our trusted partners who bring holistic support to refugees and forcibly displaced people, whether in transit or starting lives anew.
