Worship at Immanuel

The  pandemic lock-downs  led to the suspension of our normal services, but  we are now back to ‘normality’ and  every Sunday morning at 10.30.  there is a act of worship.  Although we no longer ask people to adhere to strict covid regulations, we do ask people to be sympathetic to the needs of others in the congregation (see ‘What’s On?’  for further details). If you would like to listen to one of our services, sound files are available on the ‘Recent Events’ page.

 

 

Traditionally there were  always  two services each Sunday at Immanuel but we no  longer  hold a regular   evening service as in the past. That  said,   there is worship  at  Immanuel on ‘special  occasions ….such  as Remembrance Day. (look at  the What’s On page to  get  any  details of forthcoming services.

Our  morning ‘Family Service’ at 10.30 am is often quite full (60 /70/ adults), with   the opportunity to chat afterwards over a cup of tea or coffee.

Our teachers and helpers go through the DBS (formerly CRB) checking service. A crèche is available for the very young, and stewards will be happy to introduce you to a crèche leader.
