Come and bring your little ones for lots of fun at Eddys Tots! (Meeting in St Edmunds church tomorrow).

We’re back again tomorrow (Thursday)! This time we will be in the church just whilst the renovations are happening to the hut. Same time 9.30-11am and same toys, just in the main church instead 🤩 St Ed’s DE24 9JA

No service at St. Ed’s this morning as we gather together with churches from across the city for ONE at Vaillant Live, Derby — with J. John speaking, loads of baptisms, worship, and a chance to celebrate what God is doing across Derby together.

Please do be praying for the event and for all those being baptised today 🙏

We’ll be back as normal on Pentecost Sunday 24th May, and don’t forget our midweek Communion service this week.

Have a great Sunday everyone!

A big thank you to the team at Marc Stephens Funeral Service for their incredibly generous donation of Easter eggs for our Eastery Mystery event.

Your kindness helped bring so much joy to the children and families who came along, and we’re so grateful for your support in making it such a special day.

It’s a real gift to have local organisations partnering with us in loving and serving our community!

THE TIMELINE HAS BEEN DISRUPTED.

Something has gone wrong… and Easter is in danger of being forgotten.

This Good Friday, children are invited to become Time Agents and join the brilliantly eccentric Professor Tock for an unforgettable, time-travelling adventure.

Through games, puzzles, clues and hands-on activities, we’ll journey back to the very first Easter to restore the timeline and uncover what really happened to Jesus.

Friday 3rd April
10:00am–12:00pm
St Edmund’s Church, Allenton & Shelton Lock

All children will receive a free packed lunch to take home.
Please sign up all adults and children attending (for building capacity).

Will you accept the mission?

Ash Wednesday.

Lent begins by slowing down.

Ash Wednesday is a traditional, contemplative service with simple prayers, readings, and a moment to pause and reflect on life; the good, the hard, and the messy; and to consider hope again. The minister will be robed.

If church feels unfamiliar, you’re very welcome to just come and experience it at your own pace; sit, listen, and take a quiet moment without any pressure to join in.

📅 Wednesday 18 February
🕖 7:00–8:00pm
📍 St Edmund’s Church, Allenton & Shelton Lock

All are welcome; whether you have faith, questions, or simply need a moment of stillness.
