Welcome to Knockbracken Congregational Church

Jesus said "Come to me, all who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
Matthew 11:28
Sundays
During July and August, we meet in person each Lord’s Day at 11:00am.
Usually our Minister, Calvin Coulter, preaches at most of our services.
He will explain things as we go along but the format is quite simple. We read from the Bible, sing some hymns, Calvin will pray and then he will speak for 25-30 minutes. Services usually last just over an hour from start to finish.
Tea and coffee are served after most Sundays, and these are great opportunities to get to know one another, form and renew friendships, and ask those puzzling questions that have been buzzing around in our heads since mid-way through the message.

If you are visiting with us for the first time, then you are particularly welcome.
At Knockbracken, we believe that God communicates with us primarily through his written word, the Bible. For this reason, we take great care to think through what he is saying to us. Every Sunday service and Wednesday night Bible study, and prayer time centre around the teaching of the Bible. Our minister explains the passage, and is always happy to answer questions afterward.
We recognise that, for some, just coming into a church building can be an intimidating experience. We work hard to prevent that and can promise that, if you are a first-time visitor, no one will put you on the spot or embarrass you. You are welcome to contact us ahead of your visit, so we can look out for you and make you welcome. Just email Calvin our minister, and he’ll be sure to look out for you and find someone to give a personal welcome, and even sit with you through the service.
