Friday 24th April 2026 Welcome to this week's Friday Mail, with information about our services, events and ministries. Scripture of Encouragement Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. Psalm 95: 6 (NIV) SUNDAY Ever feel like you were built for something more than just the 9-to-5 grind? 🛠️ The truth is, you were. You aren't just a "human being"—you’re a worshipper by design. It’s essentially our factory setting! We all give our time, energy, and affection to something. This Sunday, we’re talking about how to direct that focus toward the One who created us. Join us this Sunday, 26th April as we host Josh Carr at River of Life. Josh is a worship leader who has worked with Noel Robinson, Philippa Hanna and TripleO. He is currently the DRIVE TIME host on Premier Praise. Click the picture to visit his YouTube channel.

PRAYER MEETINGS Do join us for our prayer meetings from 10am every Sunday and 11.30am every Tuesday. SPRING GIVING WEEK Our Spring Giving Week begins at the end of the month. Let's pray for God's provision for the next season of River of Life! MISSIONS Click on the picture to watch the video AGM We often focus on the "New Wine"—the excitement of growth, fresh moves of God, and new ministries. But the "New Wine" is a gift from God; our responsibility lies in the "Wineskin." We are moving into a season where God is pouring out fresh passion, fresh ideas and outreach into our communities. Our task at this year's AGM is to ensure our "wineskins" are supple and ready for what God has for us next. POP-UP SHOP Thank you to everyone who purchases items to keep our pop-up shop going. This week's needs include: Toilet rolls, tinned meat, squash, tinned fruit & sanitary products.

Where & when does the church meet?

Our Church meets every Sunday at 10.30am for Sunday Service. Aim to arrive 10 minutes early to get parked and find a seat in time for the service to start.

We meet at:

River of Life Christian Life Centre
2 Carr Road, Felixstowe, IP11 2FS

You can see a map on our Contact us page.

There is plenty of parking available on the site.

What should I expect when I visit the church?

You will receive a very warm welcome particularly from our Welcome Team who will be able to answer your questions and direct you to where you need to go. There will be approximately 45 mins of singing with opportunity for church members to pray or read a passage from the bible. After the notices there will be a spiritual message from one of the leaders at the Church with a chance to respond at the end of the service.

Tea, coffee and biscuits are normally served after the service where there is plenty of time to meet new people and ask more questions.

What happens to the children at church?

We have a fantastic programme for children at the Church for ages 0 thru 17. Children stay with their parents at the start of the service as we worship (sing songs!) together for the first part of the morning. An announcement is made when it's time for children to join their programmes. Children need to be registered.

For more information about programmes and age groups, please refer to the relevant pages under the main menu heading "Ministries".

Is there a dress code?

No! Please just be yourself and come dressed in your 'normal' clothes.

Will I have to join in?

Not at all!
You are free to simply observe or participate as much as feels comfortable for you.
