Raising Lives. Restoring Families. Equipping Purpose.

Welcome to Everlasting Joy

I’m new here

Wherever you are starting from — curious, hurt, brand new in the faith, or simply looking for a church family that means what it says — this is the page for you.

What to expect

What actually happens when you join us

A gathering at Everlasting Joy is built around four things, in this order: we pray, we worship, we open the Bible together, and we respond. That is it. No performance, no fundraising theatre, no one standing at the door with a clipboard asking for your details.

Online gatherings

Video for the teaching, then breakout rooms for discussion. Cameras optional. If your network drops, the recording is in your inbox by the next morning.

In person

Arrive five minutes early and someone will show you where the children’s room, the quiet corner and the tea are. Safeguarded, vetted team in every children’s space.

After the meeting

Nobody disappears. If you responded to the message or asked for prayer, a pastor contacts you within 48 hours — that is a policy, not a hope.

Children & teens

Age-banded teaching during the service, plus their own fellowships midweek. You will be told exactly who is in the room with your child.

The response

If you want to put your faith in Christ

Salvation is a gift received by grace through faith — not a level of religious performance you qualify for (Ephesians 2:8–9). If you are ready, prayer is simply honesty with God. Something like this, in your own words:

Lord, I know I have sinned and I cannot fix myself. I believe Jesus died for me and rose again. I turn from my old life and I receive You as my Saviour and my Lord. Thank You for forgiving me. Teach me to live for You, and give me Your Holy Spirit. Amen.
If you just prayed that — tell us. Not because we can save you, but because you should not start alone. We will send you the first week of the New Convert Journey, connect you with a mentor, and put you in a group with people at the same start line. Say so here →

Questions

Before you ask anyone in person

What actually happens at an EJM gathering?

Prayer, worship, a Bible teaching you can follow with your open Bible, and time to respond. Online, we use video for the teaching and breakout rooms for discussion, so you can ask anything without performing.

I am not religious. Should I still come?

Yes. Most of the people we serve are not coming from a church background — they are coming from a hard season. No dress code, no pressure, no offering appeal directed at you personally.

Do I have to believe anything to participate?

You only have to be honest and willing to learn. Faith grows from hearing the message (Romans 10:17), so start by listening.

Is my counselling or prayer request kept private?

Yes. Requests are seen only by the pastor or counsellor assigned to your case. See our privacy and safeguarding pages for exactly what we store, who sees it, and how to ask for deletion.

Can I bring my children?

Yes. Children are served by their own age-appropriate, safeguarded ministry — see Children, Teenagers and Youth above. Parents join the main teaching.

How much does it cost?

Nothing to attend or be counselled. The ministry is funded by partners who believe in the work. If you would like to support it, that is between you and God.

Find where you fit

Not sure which door to walk through? Tell us your situation.

Write two sentences about where you are. A real person on the ministry team will answer — not an auto-responder, not a link to a donation page.
