*THIS SUNDAY*
Launch Event for ‘One Thing at a Time’
7th June 6-8pm, Shared Space Westcliff
Bring food to go with jacket potatoes.

From now onwards, each month in CFS, we have one thing for us to focus on together.

This new rhythm is shaping everything we do. Our gatherings, Community Groups, conversations, prayers, and practices will all centre around a single theme. Rather than spreading ourselves across lots of different ideas, we’ll take the time to go deeper into one thing at a time.

Our first focus for the month of June is FOLLOW ME.

On Sunday we come together to set the direction for the weeks ahead.
We would love everyone to make this a priority. 

Community Groups do not meet during launch week, creating space for us to gather as one community.

Jesus’ invitation is simple: “FOLLOW ME.” Yet those two words have the power to transform everything. Following Jesus is not about mastering complicated ideas; it is about learning a new way to live, love, and see the world.

Come expectant. Come ready to learn, to be challenged, and to be changed. Jesus please help us to become people who increasingly reflect your life, and a community that brings hope, goodness, and transformation wherever we are.

One thing at a time. One step at a time. Following Jesus together.

ONE THING AT A TIME
Launch Event: 7th June 6-8pm

From June onwards, each month in Church from Scratch, we will have one thing for us to focus on together.

This new rhythm will shape everything we do. Our gatherings, Community Groups, conversations, prayers, and practices will all centre around a single theme. Rather than spreading ourselves across lots of different ideas, we’ll take the time to go deeper into one thing at a time.

Our first focus for the month of June is FOLLOW ME.

Each month will begin with a launch where we come together to explore the theme and set the direction for the weeks ahead. We would love everyone to make this a priority. Community Groups will not meet during launch week, creating space for us to gather as one community.

In the weeks that follow, we’ll explore the theme together and find practical ways to live it out in everyday life.

Jesus’ invitation is simple: “FOLLOW ME.” Yet those two words have the power to transform everything. Following Jesus is not about mastering complicated ideas; it is about learning a new way to live, love, and see the world.

As we begin this journey together, start praying and preparing now. Come expectant. Come ready to learn, to be challenged, and to be changed. Jesus please help us to become people who increasingly reflect your life, and a community that brings hope, goodness, and transformation wherever we are.

One thing at a time. One step at a time. Following Jesus together.
