Hub conference

We are blessed to be part of the Regions Beyond family of churches within the Newfrontiers network.

From 12th to 14th November, Regions Beyond will be hosting a Hub conference in Dubai, bringing together Christians from many nations across the world. Watch the promotional video here.

Alan and Sandra Bell, Ian and Anne, Ali and Claire Scott, Taiwo and Tayo Adewumi and John Oliver will be there. They are anticipating a significant time of sharing with brothers and sisters from round the globe, so that we as a church can be impacted and caught up in the apostolic worldwide mission that we are part of on their return.

Please hold these seven and the conference in your prayers. 

Gift Day and Special Offering

We are grateful to God for the growth and fruit he is blessing us with. We want to give into the growth of God's Kingdom at home and overseas.

So twice a year we hold a Gift Day - a special opportunity to give, above and beyond our regular tithes and offerings. Our latest Gift Day was Sunday, November 1 - but there is still time to give. Gift Day envelopes will be available over the next few Sundays.

And if you're a UK taxpayer, please Gift Aid your giving. This means we can claim tax back from the Government. In the last year, this was worth more than £60,000!

Part of what we give will go to a special collection for the work of our churches family Regions Beyond. Here's Steve Oliver to update us on what's happening

Adoption Sunday

As Christians, we are adopted into God's family and we at Emmanuel, through our Compassion 4 Kids initiative, are supporting the work of Home for Good, which seeks to recruit more adoptive and foster parents, and Safe Families for Children, which supports families in need.

November 1 to 7 is National Adoption Week and we're considering how we can meet the needs of vulnerable children through adoption, fostering, prayer and support.
