It was announced by the SEC that all SDA churches are to close for 4 weeks from 21st March. Below is a message from our pastor & church board.

Beloved Church Family and Friend of Hope Community Beckenham

The Pastoral team and board want to do all that we can  to support members and effect the stopping of the Covid19 Pandemic.

Over the next weeks information will be updated and relayed to all members as we go through this tough period together as a Church.

We advise social distancing and to adhere to government suggestions to limit the spread of this virus.

We however DO NOT support complete isolation because it is a barrier to the spreading of the Good News of the love of God through Jesus Christ.

We will continue to keep the conversation and connection to God alive through the following methods:

Prayer Meeting - Call

Wednesday evenings @ 7:30pm - 9pm

Stay connected to church whatsapp groups or contact Derrick, Maame or Josephine for more information.

If you're unable to make any of the sessions above, we strongly encourage you to have divine worship at home with your family.

Use this as an oppurtunity to connect with one another and celebrate the gift of God -Jesus Christ. This is a chance for us to grow closer to one another.

Let us have faith and remember to not be fearful.
