Important Notice For Ilkeston Campus

Important Notice From Kristian Thorpe:

Hi Gang

Firstly I must apologise for my formality. But last Sunday I announced publicly in both services that as from September 11th we will be reverting back to one service on a Sunday in ILKESTON ONLY for the foreseeable future. The new service time will be 10:30am and I was aware that there were many people who were away on holiday etc who may not have heard!

We also have taken the decision to close our monthly Sunday at 6pm so we can concentrate even more on the new 10:30am service and Mansfield at 6pm.

We are very thankful to God for those who committed to supporting these services and also those who served, helped and lead in any way!

This decision has not been taken lightly but has been carefully and prayerfully considered. There are numerous reasons behind this decision but the main factor was a desire to unite the services so that we continue to build a united family. It has also been noted that the major numerical growth seen over the past year has come predominantly through the 11am service.

Please do not be put off by chairs / car parking and space. We have carefully considered all these things and are confident that we can cater for the greater crowds!

I do hope this new service time doesn’t cause you any difficulties as we see you all as an important part of the church family. Over the Summer weeks we are continuing with one service at 11am as previously planned! THIS SUNDAY IS PASTOR DAVID SHEARMAN leader of the world renowned Christian Centre Nottingham a great friend of this house so don’t be late!

We are very thankful for all that God has done over the past few years through Sunday at 9am and Sunday at 6. We are trusting God for the next season – believing for more miracles, healing’s, salvation and significant growth in all areas as we continue with our vision and heartbeat of raising disciples and touching the world.

I pray that God will continue to bless you.

As always if you have any questions then please feel free to come back to me.

Blessings

Kristian

‘His (God’s) intent was that NOW through the church…” (Eph 3v20)

Just recently I received a copy of some comment attributed to the well respected evangelist J.John. He had been asked by an American Christian magazine to give some reflections on how he saw church in 2020, just ten years from now.
