House
Groups
House or Class groups are at the heart of
Methodism and play a key role in church life, particularly in a church as large as EMC.
Small groups of people get together in each other’s homes for fellowship, study,
prayer and mutual support. Everyone can join a class - there are a wide variety of groups,
which meet at different times in the week or month.

You
will be aware
that to
accomplish our
Mission
Statement we
have discerned
that God is
calling us to
encourage
"all to
share in the
excitement and
challenge of
the Christian
journey".
The
leadership team
are convinced
that one way we
can respond to
this aspect of
our Mission
Statement is
through the
support and
development of House
Groups.
These of course
run alongside Alpha and
Disciple. We
therefore want
to support the
existing House
Groups and when
necessary to
start new ones.
For all arrangements concerning the use of
EMC rooms,
“Doorkeeper in the House of the Lord”
(Psalm 84 v10)
The psalmist recognised that to
be the doorkeeper in God’s house was a great service, though a humble one!
We want to recognise the very great service that’s been given to EMC by our
own ‘doorkeeper’, who has for many years ‘kept watch over the going out and
the coming in’ of all the groups which meet at EMC.
Tom Styche has carefully ensured
that rooms are reserved and prepared for every group and, as far as humanly
possible, has catered for the needs of all the gatherings, serving the
church and community.
Thank you Tom for your care and
commitment to this task – the church is grateful to you and will always be
in your debt.
Tom continues as EMC Property
Steward working with the Property Committee to keep the premises in good
order, but from June 1 2008 for all reservations for rooms and future
bookings, please contact Sue Massingham on 07534 428584 or
e-mail (or speak to her in person Tuesday to Friday mornings in the
Ministers’ office)
