💧 Baptism Sunday! 🙏

What a special day we’ve had today as we celebrated our first baptism of the year at Hydro Barn, Clayton-le-Moors.

Rishton Christian Fellowship our church family were able to celebrate together ❤️

Baptism is a beautiful outward expression of an inward decision to follow Jesus. It represents leaving the old life behind and beginning a new life with Christ. It’s a public declaration of faith — saying, “I belong to Jesus!” ✝️

Jesus said:

“Unless someone is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.”
— John 3:5

What a joy to celebrate this important step of faith today! 🎉💦

Please join us in congratulating and praying for those who were baptised today, as they continue their journey with Jesus. 🙌

💚 A Little Reminder About Our Community Food Bank 💚

Our food bank is run entirely by volunteers from our small church. We are not government funded – every food parcel is made possible through the kindness and generosity of people who donate food or money to help support those in our community.

When we have enough supplies available, we are pleased to offer food parcels to those who need them. Our volunteers give their time to collect, sort, pack, and distribute these parcels.

We have limited storage for food so this limits the amount of parcels we can supply each week so please bare with us.

If you need a food parcel, please message us to book in first. This helps us manage our supplies and ensure we have a parcel available for you.

Food parcel collections will now take place at:
📅 Wednesdays at 7:15pm
📅 Sundays at 10:15am

If you need a food parcel, we will always do our best to help where we can. In return, we kindly ask for a little patience, understanding, and courtesy. A simple "please" and "thank you" means a great deal to our volunteers, who give their time freely to support others.

We also ask that our collection times are respected. Many of our volunteers have jobs, families, and other commitments. If you are unable to collect your parcel at the arranged time, please send us a message as soon as possible so that we are not left waiting.

Thank you to everyone who continues to donate, volunteer, and support our food bank. Your kindness makes a real difference to people in our community. ❤️

🌟 Meet Our New Pastors – Allen & Cherie Myers 🌟
What a blessing it is to officially welcome Allen and Cherie Myers into this new season of leadership with us!

Family is at the heart of who they are. Together they are proud parents to six children and grandparents to four grandchildren, and their love for God and people shines through in everything they do.

Allen has a real passion for worship and music. He faithfully leads worship each week and is a gifted musician, playing both the guitar and piano. His heart for drawing people closer to God through worship is evident every time he serves.
Cherie has a wonderful gift for caring, encouraging and nurturing others. She faithfully plans and helps run our Toddler Group and Children's Club each week, investing in the lives of our youngest generation and supporting families in our community.

Together, Allen and Cherie are deeply involved in so many areas of church life. They support and encourage our youth, help lead community activities, and play a key role in running the Food Bank, serving those who need practical support and a helping hand.

Although they have only been with us for half a week as pastors, they are already making a meaningful impact in our church and wider community. Their servant hearts, genuine kindness, and commitment to sharing God's love are inspiring to see.

Please continue to pray for Allen and Cherie as they step into this exciting new chapter. We are grateful for their leadership, their dedication, and the love they show to everyone they meet.
❤️ We are so blessed to have you both with us. Welcome, Allen and Cherie!

If only we all look this good on our pictures! We love a good cartoon character picture 😄💕xx

Today was a truly special day in the life of our church as we celebrated the passing of the baton from Tony and Joyce Oldbury to Allen and Cherie Myers.

After many years of faithful service, leadership, and love poured into this church family, we honoured Tony and Joyce and gave thanks to God for their dedication and commitment to His calling. Their legacy of faith, discipleship, and servant-hearted leadership will continue to bear fruit for generations to come.

We also joyfully commissioned and installed Allen Myers as Pastor, praying God's blessing, wisdom, and anointing upon both Allen and Cherie as they step into this new season of ministry. We are excited for all that God has planned for the future and look forward to walking together as a church family.

As one season transitions into another, we are reminded that God remains faithful, leading His church from generation to generation.

"One generation shall praise Your works to another, and shall declare Your mighty acts." — Psalm 145:4

Please join us in thanking God for Tony and Joyce and in praying for Allen and Cherie as they embrace this new chapter.

Dear Church Family,

We warmly invite you to join us for a special Pastor Installation Service on Sunday, 7 June 2026, as we celebrate God's faithfulness and mark an important transition in the life of our church.

This service will be a time of honouring Pastor Tony and Joyce Oldbury for their years of faithful leadership, love, and dedication to our church and community, while also officially installing and commissioning Pastor Allen and Cherie Myers as they step into this new season of ministry.

During the service, our Leadership Team will gather around Allen and Cherie to pray over them, asking for God's wisdom, guidance, strength, and blessing as they lead and shepherd our church family.

We would also love for everyone to participate in blessing both pastoral families. A special book will be available where you can write a favourite Bible verse, prayer, word of encouragement, or personal message for Tony and Joyce, as well as Allen and Cherie. This will be a meaningful way to express our gratitude, support, and prayers as we honour one season of ministry and welcome another.

Service Details

- Date: Sunday, 7 June 2026
- Time: 10:30am – 12:00pm
- Theme: Passing on the Baton – Tony Oldbury to Allen Myers

Together, we will worship, pray, celebrate, and thank God for all He has done and all that lies ahead.

Everyone is welcome, and we encourage you to be part of this joyful and significant day in the life of our church family.

Blessings,

Rishton Christian Fellowship

Happy 64th Wedding Anniversary, Pastors! ❤️🙏

Today, our church family joins together in celebrating a remarkable milestone—64 years of marriage for our beloved senior pastors.

They have faithfully walked hand in hand, serving the Lord, loving one another, and dedicating their lives to the ministry and to the people God has placed in their care. Their marriage is a beautiful testimony of faith, commitment, sacrifice, and God's enduring grace.

Through the years, they have built a wonderful legacy of faith and family, blessed with 3 children, 9 grandchildren, and 4 great-grandchildren. Their lives have impacted not only their family but also countless members of our church and community through their selfless love, wisdom, and servant hearts.

We are grateful for their faithful leadership, unwavering dedication, and the example they continue to set for all of us. Their lives remind us of God's goodness and the power of a marriage centered on Christ.

Please join us in congratulating our pastors on 64 years of marriage and in praying for God's continued blessings, strength, joy, and health in the years ahead.

Happy 64th Anniversary! May the Lord richly bless you both. ❤️🎉🙏

"Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate." — Mark 10:9 ✝️
