"...our Saviour, Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death..." (2 Timothy 1:10, The Bible)
We are a group of ordinary people who've discovered God loves us more than we imagine and deserve.
In these COVID-19 times, we believe the message of Jesus Christ - who rose from the dead, defeating death - is the best news in the world, for everyone.
We aim to be an open and friendly church family - committed to one another and serving our local community.
At the moment our weekly meetings are taking place online.
We would love you to join us this coming Sunday at 10.30am via video conferencing. Please email chrislowe@stjohnsorchardpark.org for a link,
Sundays
We meet on Sunday mornings at 10.30am at Orchard Park Primary School, in north Cambridge.
The service last about an hour and a quarter. And anybody and everybody can come. There’s no dress code, no barriers, no age limit, no conditions, no entry requirements. Everyone is welcome.
During our time together we listen to God speaking to us through the Bible. And we respond together to what he says with songs and prayers. You can join in with as much or a little as you like. During our time together there’s a crèche, Sunday School and 11-14s group – all looked after by DBS-checked church volunteers.
At the moment we’re looking together at the New Testament letter of 1 John.
John says, in 1 John 5:13: "I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life"
He's talking about having eternal life. That's not just living for ever. It's about a life of knowing God the Father in a personal and real and wonderful way, right now today and beyond death itself.
And he's saying that by believing in Jesus Christ we may know with total assurance that this eternal life is ours
As well as meeting on Sundays, we get together in small groups in local homes during the week to read the Bible, help one another connect what God says with our daily lives, care for and pray for one another.
Through board games evenings and barbecues and other events we love helping Orchard Park become a more connected and friendly community.
And, this year, we aim to offer every household in Orchard Park a free copy of John’s gospel. Because we want everyone to discover the eternal life that Jesus offers us all!
