Our annual conference begins here. "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life" (John 6:63). Join our Senior Pastor for an evening of teaching that goes beyond the letter of the Word and into its life and spirit. Come hungry for revelation and ready to encounter Scripture in a way that refreshes your faith and stirs your heart. This is the launch of our conference, and you won't want to miss how it all begins.
The Love Feast is our way of saying thank you to everyone who serves in the House of the Lord. We're bringing together our leaders, coordinators and Kingdom workers for an afternoon of appreciation, fellowship and a joyful meal shared in Christ's love. It's a time to honour the spirit of service, celebrate what God is doing through His people and strengthen the bonds that make us a family. If you serve at Elpis, this one is for you.
God cares about the whole of you: body, mind and spirit. This session is designed to help God's people look after their physical, mental and emotional wellbeing through practical teaching grounded in godly wisdom. You'll leave equipped with healthy habits you can start living out straight away, and encouraged to pursue a more balanced and fulfilling life in Christ Jesus. Bring your questions and come ready to learn.
As 2026 draws to a close, we're setting aside five days to seek God together and lay a sure foundation for the year ahead. Our theme is drawn from Isaiah 28:16, where the Lord declares that He lays in Zion a tried and precious cornerstone, a sure foundation. Join the church family in prayer and fasting from Tuesday 1 to Saturday 5 December as we build our lives, our homes and our plans for 2027 on Christ, the foundation that cannot be shaken.
This Sunday, our young people are taking the lead. Led by our Sunday School, children and youth will step into active roles across the service, from ushering and praise and worship to bringing the Word. It's a chance for them to grow in confidence, discover their gifts and feel truly part of the life of the church as they prepare for the next stage of their journey of faith. Come and cheer them on, and be blessed by what God is doing in the next generation.
Come and lose yourself in the presence of God. Our Worship Pastor Christabel and the Music Team invite you to an evening of worship led by the Holy Spirit before the Throne of God. No rush and no agenda, just praise, adoration and pouring out our hearts to the One who is worthy of it all. Whether you arrive weary or rejoicing, come expectant. There is always more in His presence.
Join us for our final Sunday service of 2026. As the year comes to a close, we'll gather as one family to worship, hear the Word and give God thanks for His faithfulness through every season. It's the perfect Sunday to bring a friend or family member along as we celebrate the Christmas season together and look ahead to all He has in store.
Our theme this year is Grateful. Join us as we cross over from 2026 into 2027 in the house of God, with thanksgiving on our lips and praise in our hearts. We'll look back on all the Lord has done, give Him glory for every answered prayer and every open door, and step into the new year under His covering. Come with your family, come with your testimony and come ready to give thanks. There's no better place to welcome the new year than in His presence.
