Friday 29th May 2026 Scripture of Encouragement Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Philippians 4:6 (NIV) SUNDAY Ever feel like your prayer life is more of a "last resort" than a first priority? 🤔 We’ve all been there. It’s easy to let prayer slide to the bottom of our to-do lists, but this Sunday, we’re talking about why it’s time to change that. Join us for our next message in our series - "Pray on Purpose." We’ll explore why taking prayer seriously can completely transform our lives, our community, and our relationship with God. Prayer isn't just a ritual- it's a powerful, purposeful connection. See you on Sunday!

PRAYER MEETINGS Do join us for our prayer meetings from 10am every Sunday and 11.30am every Tuesday. As it is the first of the month, this Tuesday is prayer and fasting! LADIES' PAMPER EVENING Next Friday, 5th June, is our ladies' event. We'll be taking part in a relaxing, guided slumber evening using TempleSpa products. This will be led by church member and TempleSpa Consultant, Carol Limbachia. Feel free to bring a friend. Please book in by Sunday 31st May by clicking on the image below. LIVING STREAMS 3 = 1? Let’s Talk About the Maths of God. If we’re being completely honest, the Trinity is one of those topics most of us accept, but few of us feel comfortable explaining. One God, three distinct Persons. But what if the Doctrine of the Trinity isn’t a confusing maths problem to solve? What if it’s actually the key to understanding how God relates to us, and how we relate to each other? We are opening up a special, two-week Bible class to dive straight into this mystery and discover the doctrine that changes everything about how we pray, worship, and live. BAPTISMS Baptism is an important and valuable rite of passage in our walk with Jesus. If you've never been baptised, we will be setting a date soon for our next baptism service. If you would like to get baptised, please email us at: mail@riveroflifechurch.net TESTIMONY SUNDAY If you have a testimony of God's goodness and power, we would love to hear from you. Please speak to or message Rob or Sarah. Our Testimony Sunday will be on the 14th June 2026. CRAFT AND COFFEE MORNING Do join us for our monthly Craft and Coffee morning on Thursday 4th June.

We meet at:

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

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.
