Psalm 20v7-8: “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. They are brought to their knees and fall, but we rise up and stand firm.” Who, or what, are you trusting in at this time?
[Read more…]Coronavirus: All meetings cancelled until further notice
Following the advice and guidance issued by the government this week in response to the Coronavirus outbreak, the elders of the church have taken the difficult, but necessary decision to cancel all meetings at the church with immediate effect. This will be reviewed as and when the government’s advice changes.
During this time we will seek to have a weekly ‘service’ each Sunday morning which will be available online and via other forms of media. Please keep an eye on our Facebook page for updates. We will also be looking to send devotional articles and messages during the week. If you don’t currently receive emails from the church and would like to be included in these, please get in touch.
We will be looking to ensure that pastoral support is provided to all, and those in particular need are catered for. Please let us know if you have any specific needs that you’d like assistance with.
It’s really important that, during this trying time, we keep in touch with one another and seek to exhort and encourage one another (Hebrews 3:13) and bear one another’s burdens (Galatians 6:2).
Above all, we need to remember that our great God is in control, and that our times are in His hands. Keep looking to Him!
Psalm 23.
With love in Christ, from the elders.

[Read more…]40th Anniversary of NEC
This weekend marks the 40th anniversary since a group of believers began meeting as “Newtown Evangelical Church”. Since that day, God has been faithful for 4 decades, and for that we give him all the praise and glory.
We will be having a special “Anniversary Service” to mark this occasion this Sunday (10th March). Geraint Jones will be taking the service – Geraint was one of the founding members of the church.
We will also be having a buffet tea at 4:30pm. We extend a warm welcome to all to join us as we celebrate God’s goodness over 40 years.
“Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.”
Lamentations 3:22-23
Walking with the Wise
As part of “Project Proverbs” we’ll be learning and singing some of the songs on the children’s CD “Walking with the Wise”. So far, we’ve learnt 3 songs which we’ll be looking to sing in the coming weeks. Have a listen and familiarise yourself with them – there are some great truths in them!
