Lego-themed event for all the family Saturday 12th April

On Saturday 12th April, we'll be running our "Saturday Brick Bonanza" from 10am until 12pm at the United Chapel on New Street (the church with the blue door).


An event for all the family, we'll be hearing about the tree-climbing Zacchaeus in the Bible and how his encounter with Jesus left him completely changed!  There'll also be loads of Lego to use for building and for optional Lego challenges.

The event is free to attend, and free refreshments will be served.  Please note: all children must attend with a responsible adult (and all adults must attend with children!)

Accessing Sermon Recordings

If you're not able to get to our services in person, one easy way to hear the messages preached during our Sunday morning worship services is to watch the livestream on YouTube: a link is shared on the church's Facebook page when the livestream begins.

But another way of hearing the messages is to visit the Soundcloud website and search for "Welshpool Community Church".  On our profile page, you can listen to our sermons for free, but if you want to download a sermon onto your device, then you will need to register a Soundcloud account (again, this is free).

Here's a link to the church's profile page on Soundcloud, where you'll find lots of the church's playlists covering a variety of sermon series, including the current series based on the Old Testament book of Nehemiah.

An enjoyable Saturday Brick Bonanza that built us up!

It was great to have nearly 20 visitors at our recent Saturday Brick Bonanza.

For the first bit of the event, we heard about the Bible's account of David's battle with Goliath (presented in Lego pictures, of course!) and how God sent Jesus Christ to be a champion who would defeat death on our behalf.

Then it was time for the Lego building challenges while refreshments were served and everyone chatted - I've included a couple of pictures below of the models built, but the rest are on the church's Facebook page.


As a church, we were definitely built up and encouraged by the event and will be setting a date for the next one soon!

Worship with Friends on Thursday mornings

Would you like to learn more about the Christian faith?  

Or do you feel like you've drifted away from God and you miss Him?  

Or do you just want to meet some other Christians during the week and feel supported in your faith? 

Consider coming along to Worship With Friends, a meeting held every Thursday morning at 10:30am.


A simple half-hour worship service is followed by refreshments and an opportunity to chat, to be encouraged and to ask questions in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

The meeting is held in the United Church building on New Street (in between the Cock Pit and New Street Baptist Chapel).  Everyone is welcome.

Listening to our sermons online

If you want to hear sermons preached in the past at Welshpool Community Church, they are usually uploaded to SoundCloud, an online audio/music sharing website.  The easiest option is to listen to the sermons streaming, but it's also possible to download tracks.

A lot of the sermons there have been put into playlists.  As an example, click the link below to go to the playlist for a recent sermon series in which we explore various topics regarding life as a local church:

3pm Worship Service on January 16th

We've had to change the time of our Sunday Worship Service on January 16th, so we'll be gathering at 3pm instead of 10:30am.

Pastor Tom Magness will be starting a new teaching series looking at the fundamentals of the Christian life, called "Ground Floor Christianity".


We'll be following the current Welsh government guidelines for worship services (e.g. wearing masks unless exempt), but the service will still include songs, prayers and Bible teaching, and refreshments will be available afterwards.

Christmas events at Welshpool Community Church

 


As many of you will know, we've been unable to return to our pre-lockdown meeting place, the Ann Holloway Centre, so we're grateful that we've been able to hire the United Chapel building on New Street for our gatherings; and it appears that we'll be there for the foreseeable future.  

All of our Christmas services and events will be taking place there, and this will include:

"Coffee and Carols" every Monday morning, 10-12, until Christmas

All-age service on Sunday 5th December at 10:30am, followed by a hot lunch

Carol Service on Sunday 12th December at 5:30pm, followed by mince pies

Christmas Day Service at 10am, followed by a Community Meal at 1pm

There will be no charge for the lunches, but if you're planning to come to the community meal on Christmas Day, it would help if you could book beforehand: contact us on 07908362335 or email us at welshpoolcommunitychurch@gmail.com.
