Friday 2nd January 2026 Happy New Year! Welcome to this week's Friday Mail, with information about our services, events and ministries. Scripture of Encouragement I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Romans 12:1 (NIV) This Sunday, 4th January, we launch a new series, 'Consecration'. Pastor Rob will be speaking. His message, 'Consecration', begins a 3 week series realigning our hearts, minds and lives with God's purposes. He's recorded an introductory video- click the image below to watch it.

Prayer meetings Join us for our Tuesday prayer meeting as we commit our needs and lives to the Lord. This week, join us as we pray and fast to hit the 'reset' button of renewal. There will be other opportunities to come together over the next few weeks. Consecration Devotional As part of our refocus and realignment with God's ways and Word, Pastor Rob has put together a daily devotional to read and pray through. You can download it by clicking on the image below. River of Life Kids We also have a family devotional with thoughts, Bible verses, activities and prayers for families to work through. These will be given to every child on Sunday. Pop Up Shop Needs Our Pop-Up Shop reopens next Friday. Thank you to those who support this important ministry by buying extras to bless those who need to use the Pop-Up Shop. This week's needs include tinned meat, bottles of squash, rice pudding, cleaning products and tinned vegetables.

Where & when does the church meet?

Our Church meets every Sunday at 10.30am for Sunday Service. Aim to arrive 10 minutes early to get parked and find a seat in time for the service to start.

We meet at:

River of Life Christian Life Centre
2 Carr Road, Felixstowe, IP11 2FS

You can see a map on our Contact us page.

There is plenty of parking available on the site.

What should I expect when I visit the church?

You will receive a very warm welcome particularly from our Welcome Team who will be able to answer your questions and direct you to where you need to go. There will be approximately 45 mins of singing with opportunity for church members to pray or read a passage from the bible. After the notices there will be a spiritual message from one of the leaders at the Church with a chance to respond at the end of the service.

Tea, coffee and biscuits are normally served after the service where there is plenty of time to meet new people and ask more questions.

What happens to the children at church?

We have a fantastic programme for children at the Church for ages 0 thru 17. Children stay with their parents at the start of the service as we worship (sing songs!) together for the first part of the morning. An announcement is made when it's time for children to join their programmes. Children need to be registered.

For more information about programmes and age groups, please refer to the relevant pages under the main menu heading "Ministries".

Is there a dress code?

No! Please just be yourself and come dressed in your 'normal' clothes.

Will I have to join in?

Not at all!
You are free to simply observe or participate as much as feels comfortable for you.
