Encounter Evening
Next Encounter: 3rd April / 7.30-9pm

Once every other month, we meet at Eastern Road to worship together without any agenda. These are powerful evenings where we encounter God and wait on Him to see what He wants to say to us.

Prayer
'Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer' Romans 12:12
​
We believe that prayer is not only powerful, but is essential to the life of the church and to every believer and we would love you to join us in prayer.
Please find the various ways that you can pray with us below.
​
​Saturday Morning Prayer: We meet every Saturday from 9-10am in the Prayer Lounge at Eastern Road. All are welcome to join us!
Prayer and Fasting: We set aside time to pray and fast on the first Friday of every other month. During this time the prayer lounge is open and available to anyone who would like to come and pray. We end the day with either a time of Prayer and Worship in the Prayer Lounge starting at 8pm or an Encounter Evening as they are alternating each month.

Men's Group is open to all men, all ages and all stages of life and provides an opportunity for regular fellowship and safe space for mento share and be open. At Men's Group, we enjoy a meal together every week, discuss a focus topic, learn about and support each other through life's highs and lows. There's no requirement to be a Christian to come along.
