Welcome
EFM is closed due to the COVID-19 Lockdown restrictions but will open again on 6 December. We continue to provide services via Zoom and worship at home material. (Please see below for details).
Advent
We are entering the period of advent that leads up to Christmas.
The word Advent means arrival or coming, especially for one who is awaited. We await the coming of Christ and look forward to retelling the story of his birth on Christmas Day.
To help us on our Advent journey, we have created an online Advent Calendar. If you click here you’ll be able to open one door each day from 1 December until Christmas Eve. Look out for the weekly themes: Hope (1-7 December), God’s messengers (8-15 December), Mary the mother of Jesus (16-21 December), and the Christmas Story (22-24 December).

We remember that God remains the eternal Creator. God is not diminished by the actions we must take, but responses to the world’s struggle and suffering. In Jesus Christ we have a resurrection presence who is both the hope and the light of the world. We maybe unable to meet for corporate worship at this time, but we can still worship and pray, and become a ‘church’ in a new and different way. We may be physically dispersed and separated by circumstance, but always spiritually united in Christ.
Please stay safe.
