Theme: Accepted to Offer Acceptable Service – Do you have gifts to share? This is good but there is a more excellent way to serve.
- Pressing on the Upward Way: The hymn ‘I’m pressing on the upward way’ emphasizes striving for higher spiritual ground and living above worldly challenges through faith.
- Building on the Foundation: 1 Corinthians 3:9-15 discusses being God’s fellow workers and the importance of building on the foundation of Jesus Christ with quality materials like gold, silver, and precious stones.
- Beyond Acceptable Service: Luke 5:27-36 and Romans 12:17-21 highlight loving enemies, doing good without expecting return, and overcoming evil with good as aspects of going beyond acceptable service.
- A More Excellent Way: 1 Corinthians 12:27-31 and 13:1-3 emphasize the importance of love in service and the concept of continuous improvement and striving for excellence in service to God.

A More Excellent Way
Draw Closer
We meet in person at the All Nations’ Centre, Tyers Terrace, London SE11 5LY. You are very welcome to join us. All our Sunday Services start at 9.30 am. The doors open at 8.30 am, and the prayer service begins at 9 am. The All Nations’ Centre is where the community meets with God as a congregation. Please help us to make it a welcoming environment for all.
There are many advantages to meeting together. As the writer of the book of Hebrews writes, “And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.” (Hebrews 10:24-25) Do not miss this opportunity to meet and encourage your brothers and sisters! Often, we provide personal ministry and one-to-one encounters. Do not miss the opportunity to meet with God and be transformed.
