Thinking about visiting Elpis for the first time? Here are answers to some of the questions we hear most often. If there is anything else you would like to know, we would love to hear from you.
Our children's classes provide a fun and safe environment, led by people passionate about helping your kids discover Jesus. Each team member is dedicated to Jesus, focuses on child development and safety, and is thoroughly vetted.
On Sundays, your children will enjoy games, sing songs, have snacks, and learn about Jesus. A Kids Team member will greet you upon arrival, answer any questions, and help your children comfortably settle into their class.
We are a Bible believing church that exists to make the name of the Lord great. We believe in one God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and that salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ. Our Sundays are shaped around worship, prayer and teaching from the Bible that you can actually apply to everyday life. Whatever your background or where you are on your journey of faith, you are welcome here exactly as you are.
We are so glad Elpis feels like home. The best first step is simply to keep coming along on Sundays and to introduce yourself to a member of the team. When you are ready to go deeper, we run a welcome pathway that helps you get to know our vision, meet others and find a place to belong and serve. Speak to any of our team after a service and we will help you take the next step.
Our main gathering is every Sunday at 11am. Expect a warm welcome at the door, lively worship, prayer and a practical message from the Bible.
