One Thing
A couple of weeks ago Sarah read this poem as part of a Sermon Peter preached on Psalm 27. You can listen in the sermon section of the site. One Thing One thing, One thing, One thing!

The world of the physical attracts me excites me magnetizes me addicts…
Lucy’s Exodus Team to Slovakia
On the 8th July 2018, I set off on my trip to Slovakia with 9 others from Carrickfergus. Our bus left Belfast bus station at midnight, with our flight leaving Dublin airport at 6am.

We stayed in a small church in one of the villages and our host Timea couldn’t…

At 19, I left Northern Ireland and moved over to live in London. I served at Chelsea Community Baptist Church for 7…

Shorts, sandals, and sunscreen
Shorts. Sandals. Sunscreen. Over the past couple of weeks, our little town has been scorched with the sun. We have enjoyed evening walks, ice cream, and maybe more importantly drying clothes outside! However, this all points to one thing. Summer is fast approaching. We cannot guarantee the sunshine will last but no doubt we are looking forward to our holidays whether that means two weeks in Florida, camping in Spain, or just getting those valuable days off work. Do you…
