Welcome

You've reached the home page of Emsworth Baptist Church.

Emsworth Baptist Church is located in the heart of Emsworth on the south coast of England between Portsmouth and Chichester.

We are a growing family church serving the Lord in our community and further afield.  In addition to regular Sunday worship there is an active mid-week programme.

Sunday Services

Please feel free to join us for worship each Sunday. The morning service starts at 10:30 a.m. and the evening service at 6:30 p.m. We are always happy to welcome newcomers and visitors. The style of service ranges from the quiet contemplative to energetic music based worship. The music groups that support our services each Sunday comprise of 3 to 5 piece bands with lead and supporting singers. We praise the Lord through strong Bible led worship, through prayer, and through song and drama. For younger members of the congregation, there is an active Junior Church. Communion is served twice monthly.

Following the morning service, tea and coffee is served. This is a good time to get to know other members of the congregation. If you are a visitor to the area, there is always someone at hand that will be able to tell you about the history of Emsworth and suggest interesting places to visit.

Today's Prayer Suggestion

Dear Lord, as I find myself living in the rapidly changing and fast-paced society of today, one in which misinformation and temptations to follow other gods are rife, help me to see it all as a test of my own Christian beliefs and of the truth of Your Word.

Through all the darkness and uncertainty of today, help me to keep my eyes on You, for You have declared Yourself to be the light and the way.

In Jesus' name I pray.
Amen.

Bible reading: James 1

Thought for the Day

There is always a reason why people act as they do. Lord, help me to be more kind and patient and sympathetic to the needs of other people.
