Updated: October 31st 2021

Welcome to Elburton Methodist Community Church (EMCC) we want to share with you the great news of the Love, Hope and Peace of God. We believe that Jesus died for our mistakes so that we can know him better and gain eternal life. We believe he calls us to be obedient disciples following his commands. This includes his command to love all those around us. This is something we are seeking to do even more today.

Light

As massive thank you to everyone who came along to our Light party on October 30th. We had a lot of fun, and it was great to see so many faces. We got to celebrate the light Jesus brought into the world. We celebrated the way in which he changed things for ever. Now we are able to see everything in the light of the love he shows and live in peace with him. 

Harvest 2021

What a crazy and fanatstic time we had with our uniformed organisations and friends of all kinds as we celebrated harvest. A time to thank God for all the many blessings we have. We loved sharing the story of how the apple makes it's way to us via our boat HMS Sinky and our other interesting forms of transport.

Welcome Darren

It's the new Methodist year and we are pleased to welcome our new Minister the Rev Darren Middleton. You can watch his introductory video below ....

 

Worship

We are so excited that we have re-started in-person worship. We are called to worship God, God who created us, who loves us and calls us to love him. Our doors are open again and you don't even need to book to attend. Just pop along at 10:30 each Sunday morning. Please note there will be no evening worship during August.

Not only are we returning to some of our youth activities such as Messy Church, Impact and JaM but we are also welcoming our new minister.

EMCC Online

During the closure of the church building we switched to on-line services. We ....

  • Streamed our morning worship via Facebook
  • Provided a zoom service in the evenings and later for the mornings also
  • We provided our notices on-line and via e-mail

We have paused these services for the time being owing to our return to worship in the building. We are reviewing our use of on-line worship so keep an eye here for details of what we will be doing in the future on-line.
