News from Eastgate Baptist Church – The Mediator
Last Sunday, we continued our sermon series on the New Testament letter to the Hebrews. The writer assures us that Jesus was chosen, called and approved by God to be our ‘High Priest’ – the One who would offer the ultimate sacrifice (of Himself) on our behalf, and who would represent us before God, interceding for us. He did that, so that, like Him, we could know God as Father. And since Jesus also became a man, He is able to deal gently with those who are going astray, since He understands our weakness. What an amazingly gracious God!
On Sunday 15th March, Breakfast Church will start at 9.30am and there will be a warm welcome for everyone! We will have a breakfast of coffee, cereal, toast, fruit and warm pastries, then we will have a short talk, a prayer and a song. After a short break, the second part of the service will include more worship, a sermon and prayers, as well as Sunday school and a creche, until about 11.15am. The service will also be on Zoom. The Zoom ID is 5912614502, password: Eastgate.
We have our weekly prayer meeting at 9am on Thursdays in the vestry, and on Saturday mornings, you can drop in to the church for coffee and prayer between 10am and 11am.
On Wednesdays at 7pm in the church, our mid-week Bible studies continue, with videos from The Chosen series, based on the life of Christ. Join us to watch the videos and discuss the Gospel accounts as we approach Easter together.
We have several rooms and a hall that can be hired for parties, clubs or meetings. Call 07581 807060 on Tuesday to Saturday to discuss what you need.
We remember all who are suffering both locally and across the world and pray for peace and the hope that Jesus offers us.
