Ask a Question
We hope you've been blessed by the children's spots, praise and worship, and sermons.
However, if as you've been watching you've had a question, here's your opportunity to ask. Whether you're asking on your child's behalf or for yourself, we welcome all questions and will endeavour to answer them in one of the upcoming programmes. If we're unable to, then we'll contact you directly.
Baptismal Service
Sunday 27th September | 7pm - 8pm
As we conclude the Pathway of Hope series, join us for a celebratory service as several individuals dedicate their lives to Jesus.
What to expect?
Baptism symbolises and declares our new faith in Jesus and our trust in His forgiveness. Modern baptism means many things to many people but for Seventh-day Adventists, it's an opportunity to be fully immersed in water as a symbol of God’s act of washing away our sins—like a spiritual bath.
On Saturday 26th September, a number of individuals will be baptised across the north of England and our service on Sunday will highlight these as we celebrate in their decision.

About the Seminar
Our world is facing a continued stream of global crises in all sectors of our society - and it’s been this way for a while now.
While many of us are growing all too familiar with the uncertainty, there are others who are yearning for real change, and real hope.
You may be thinking: “I’m one of those people.” If so, we’d like to invite you and those who are precious to you, to join us in this virtual series on finding hope through an ancient book that proves time and time again to speak more about our future with certainty than any politician or thought leader could. Why? Because it is the word of God. If this really is God’s word, there’s bound to be something that He wishes for you to hear. Which is why you’re here.

Why should you join?
So many people have something to say about what’s going on in the world, so why should this series be of particular interest to you? We believe you should join if the following applies:
- Are you looking for certainty in the midst of uncertainty during 2020 and beyond?
- Are you seeking to make sense of why so much violence and evil seem to exist?
- Are you wanting to know if there is an end to the madness in the world?
- Are you seeking hope, peace and comfort as you look forward?
This series will give you a serious reason to believe that the Bible, despite its age and mixed reception through the ages, holds a wealth of knowledge, wisdom and promise for you, for those you love, and for the whole world.
We believe you’ll not only come to find peace in the information shared, but peace in the person of Jesus Himself.

Speaker
Join us along with Dr Abraham Jules, long standing pastor and passionate minister of the good news, as we unpack the hope we can have in Jesus.
Born in Trinidad in the Caribbean, Dr Jules was raised and educated in a family with a strong faith lasting generations. His own decision to follow Jesus began early in his life and since he has found himself extensively sharing the hope he found in Christ. He has pastored countless churches and conducted numerous public meetings, all in the name of sparking a flame in the hearts of people who long for something more in life. His current journey has landed him in New York at the Community Worship Centre in Queens - a place where people are the heart of its mission.
With a wife of 18 years and two children, Dr Jules understands the importance of knowing truth and chasing certainty in a time of unprecedented fear and hopelessness, especially when others depend on your leadership. His continuing ministry is not just to congregations and the hearts of New York’s people, but to his own family. His ministry has shifted and changed with different life milestones but his zeal and passion has not wavered. You will be blessed by his person-centred approach to sharing Bible truths, so don’t delay in taking part in this incredible series.
