Midweek Service – Prayer and Bible Study

Midweek Service – Prayer and Bible Study 150 150 Calvary Baptist Church

Wednesday 20th of November

Looking forward to this week’s Prayer and Bible Study meeting, Wednesday 20th November 2024. Pastor Jonathan VandenHurk, continues the sermon series 7s In The Bible. For this week, we will deepen our hearts by looking at and learning more about the “7 Mentions of Antioch, Syria.” A city which occupies a prominent place in the first-century churches’ outreach of the Gospel. It is where the disciples were first called “Christians.” The Gospel not only reached Antioch, then the capital of Syria, but from there, it went out throughout the world. We praise God that the Gospel has reached us. What will we do with it now? Let us not be “dead-end” Christians.

    What to expect

    • There is parking at both buildings. In Newborough, if we run out of parking in front of the Community Centre, there is usually plenty of free space along Guntons Road to park.

      In Dogsthorpe, entrance to the car park is from the rear of the building on Poplar Avenue (Because Poplar Avenue is one-way only, turn onto Eastern Ave., take your first left onto Poplar Ave., and drive to the end to find the car park). Alternatively, we may use the back of the local Spar shop’s car park on Welland Road. Sometimes the neighbours do get upset if we use the spaces across the street from the building on Welland Road.

      BUS: The Dogsthorpe building is a 13 minute bus ride from the Queensgate Bus Station.

      TRAIN: Of interest, Peterborough is only a 50 minute train ride from London King’s Cross. Let us know if you need a lift from the station.

    • There are no assigned seats; just sit where you like. Every seat has a great view of our screens that displays lyrics to songs, onscreen Bible notes, and announcements.

    • We will be singing traditional hymns (the words will be on a large screen, but if you have trouble seeing it, we also have hymnals available). We believe you will also be blessed by the wonderful variety of “Ministry in Song,” as part of each Sunday service, which sometimes includes a children, teen, and adult choir.

    • During the Sunday morning service your young child can enjoy an optional créche and on Sunday afternoon (2:30 – 3:30 pm), a Sunday School for all ages (during term times). In the evening services, while we do not have a dedicated children’s work, you can take care of your young one if needed, in a special Parents’ Room called the Tots Corner.

      In the autumn your children can attend our annual Holiday Bible Club for ages 4+, and in the summer your children ages 8+ would love to attend Camp Victory in Droitwich Spa. In May, they can also take part in the National Sunday School Day and Parade, run by the Crown Christian Heritage Trust.

    • In addition to the weekly Calvary Youth class in Afternoon Sunday School, your teens (Year 6+) would love to take part in our Youth Group, which meets each first and third Friday of the month (7-9 pm). Some of our Youth Group’s favourite events each year is summer Camp Victory in Droitwich Spa, and National Youth Rallies each Spring and Autumn.

    • Come as you are! Some people might be dressed up in their Sunday best, but there will be plenty of others dressed casually. Whatever you’d like to do really, as long as it is comfortable and tasteful.
