Ebenezer, Bailiffe Bridge - Minister – Rev Steph Jenner.
There is an argument about whether Bailiffe should have an ‘e’ – the
traditionalists say ‘yes’ but the spelling varies.
The original chapel has gone and the school converted some time
ago – access is therefore completely wthout steps. Worship
is at 10-45 with a mix of organist and music machine. Seating is
chairs. There is a regular Sunday school catering for a handful
of children. Café worship and a singing group (singalongajohnnie)
take place regularly.
An additional service at 9-00a.m. on one Sunday a month is to be
introduced in October.
Links have been established with the local
primary school and the church, in collaboration, with the local
Anglican church at Lightcliffe lead the Armistice service.
We have a monthly Forum meeting on the 1st Tuesday of the month at 7.30 pm, a variety of speakers and entertainment with a supper to which all are welcome.
We also run Cafe Worship on the 2nd Friday of every month, except August, starting with a cooked dinner at 6 pm we have informal Bible discussions, prayer and song finishing about 7.30 pm. There is always room for more people.
We have an established Rainbows (Tuesday evening) and Brownies (Thursday evening) group now being joined by Beavers and Cubs (Monday evening) and Scouts (Friday evening).
We also have a Parent and Toddler group meeting on Tuesday mornings.
Also during the week we host a variety of community groups from Bridge to a Swing Band.
Plus every fortnight on a Wednesday evening we hold the highly popular "Singalongajohnny" where hymns and worship songs old and new, serious and not so are sung.
