Ma n'omume ikpe ahụ kpọmkwem, ịhụnanya na-emeri, n'ihi na "Chineke na-egosi ịhụnanya Ya n'ebe anyị nọ na nke a: Mgbe anyị ka bụ ndị mmehie, Kraịst nwụrụ n'ihi anyị" (Ndị Rom 5:8).

Nke a bụ nnọchi anya ya kachasị omimi. Ọ bụghị mmetụta uche. Ọ bụ amara dị oke ọnụ.

A naghị agbapụta anyị site na imeziwanye onwe, ịgba mbọ, ma ọ bụ ahụmịhe ime mmụọ nke e kewapụrụ n'eziokwu. A na-azọpụta anyị site n'ọbara Kraịst. "N'ime Ya ka anyị nwere mgbapụta site n'ọbara Ya, mgbaghara mmehie" (Ndị Efesọs 1:7). Mgbe mmadụ bịara n'echiche na okwukwe, na-atụkwasịghị obi n'ezi omume nke aka ya kama n'ọrụ Ya agwụchaala, azụmahịa ahụ dị ozugbo ma dịruo mgbe ebighị ebi.

Jizọs kwuru, sị, "Onye ọ bụla chọrọ ịbụ onye na-eso ụzọ m ga-agọnarị onwe ya ma buru obe ya kwa ụbọchị ma soro m" (Luk 9:23). Nke a abụghị oku maka inyocha onwe.

Dịka Pọl si dee, "ihe anyị na-ekwusa abụghị anyị onwe anyị, kama Jizọs Kraịst dị ka Onyenwe anyị" (2 Ndị Kọrịnt 4:5). Ụwa gbara anyị gburugburu nwere ike inwe obi abụọ banyere okpukperechi, mana ọ ka na-agụ agụụ maka ezigbo ịhụnanya na olileanya na-adịghị agbanwe agbanwe.

Mgbe anyị gosipụtara ịdị umeala n'obi nke obe, mgbe anyị na-agbaghara dịka a gbaghaara anyị, mgbe anyị na-eje ozi n'achọghị otuto, anyị na-eme ka ike nke Calvary pụta ìhè ná ndụ kwa ụbọchị.

Church on Sunday at Strodes College, Egham


 Prophetic word for students -

Our Sunday service starts at 11:00 a.m. and typically lasts about 90 minutes.

We begin each service with lively worship, featuring songs from around the world, followed by inspiring, Bible-based teaching. All our sermons are recorded and are available as a podcast after the service.

We have a monthly cycle of Sunday services, with our Communion Service being on the first Sunday of each month and an All-Age All-Nation Service on the second Sunday of each month. Our other Sunday services include Spirit-focused and teaching services.

We have consciously adopted being a blended church, that is, both online and face-to-face. You are welcome to join us on Livestream or via Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, or X (Twitter), or you can catch up and watch the recordings later.
 

Joining us in person

Visiting a new and unfamiliar church for the first time can be intimidating, but we want to ensure you feel welcome and enjoy your time with us. A friendly face will be waiting to meet you at the entrance and welcome you. 

Doors open at 10:30 a.m. for coffee and prayer. Our Sunday Service starts at 11:00 a.m. and typically runs for about 90 minutes, normally followed by tea and coffee.

Visiting with children?

Everyone is welcome at RCF. We encourage everyone, regardless of age, to join the service. We offer Sunday School, which begins after worship and runs concurrently with the sermon for 30 to 40 minutes, serving children aged 4 to 12. On the second Sunday of each month, we have a shorter All-Aged All Nations Service, where the children stay for the worship and the sermon.
 

After Church

We chat over coffee and biscuits after church on the first, third, fourth and fifth Sundays. If you want to get more acquainted, why not join us for a Sunday lunch with some of our members?
