Newcomers' Lunches
Every 2-3 months, we hold buffet lunch to which we invite the latest new faces at Emmanuel. They are an opportunity to get to know a few members of the leadership team, the congregation and some fellow newcomers. Also to hear a little more detail about Emmanuel's vision, ministry and family life.

If you are looking to put your feet down at Emmanuel and make it your home, we encourage you to join the 'Electoral Roll' (though you don't have to!). Do ask one of the leaders after the service.
