✨ THE GREATEST GIFT ✨

Christmas is coming! As we celebrate this CHRISTmas season, we’re reminded of the greatest gift of all – Jesus.

We’re getting ready for a wonderful December at EBC, with a whole host of events and opportunities to celebrate, connect and share the joy of the season!

Take a look through our Christmas schedule and see what’s happening. We’d love for you to be part of it!

GIVING THE GIFT OF LOVE ❤️
We’re partnering with @_loveyourneighbour_ to bring a little extra joy to our local community. Every donation helps us put together bags filled with goodies and Christmas essentials for those who need them.

Donate through the link in our bio, and join us after church on Sunday 6th December to help pack and deliver the bags! 🎁

Let’s make this Christmas one to remember. We can’t wait to celebrate with you! 🎄 ...

We’re thankful for another Sunday at EBC and all that God was doing! Particularly on Remembrance Sunday, as we took time to reflect and pray together as a church.

Niall continued our series in Esther, exploring chapters 3–5. He reminded us of the dangers of deep-rooted and generational judgement, and how the attitudes we hold can shape the way we see and treat others.

This week, why not take some time to reflect on these important questions:

* Where might I be judging others?
* Where might those judgements have been passed down through my family line?
* We also had a special moment celebrating Bill’s birthday and retirement as he prepares for his travels! 🥳

A Sunday of remembrance, challenge, celebration and community. 🙌 ...

This Sunday at EBC…

Beginning our time together with Pre Gathering Prayer & then moving into a time of quiet reflection & prayer, remembering & honouring those who have sacrificed much.

We will then be going deeper into the OT book of Esther as part of our ‘Standing Out’ teaching series.

If you have a testimony of how this series is speaking into your life - we’d love you to share that with us.

What a special Sunday at EBC!

Following on from the incredible time at Altars Scotland, we heard from members of our SLT as they shared some of their experiences and reflections from the conference. It was wonderful to hear how God has been at work!

We were also delighted to welcome Kenny & Morag Borthwick, with Kenny bringing us a message from Ephesians 5:25–28.

We were challenged to consider how we love the church and one another, reflecting the sacrificial love that Christ has for His church. It was an opportunity to reflect, recognise where we need to confess, and return to the kind of love God has called us to show one another. A timely reminder of what it means to love as Christ loves us. 🙌

We also took time to say goodbye to Philda as she prepares to move away. We are so thankful her, and for her incredible prayers and faithfulness!

God loves Scotland, and is on the move! 🙏 ...

We are thrilled to have Rev Kenny Borthwick preach at EBC this Sunday, following the first Altars Scotland event in Edinburgh.

Niall & Pam, EBC Pastors are honoured & privileged to serve @altars_scotland and are expectant with the Altars Core Team for all God wants to do in Scotland over this coming weekend.
