We are delighted to announce that from Sunday September 19th, 2010, that public worship services will commence. A church planting Bible study has been meeting in our home where we continue to discuss the Scriptures especially in the light of the Westminster Standards (the confession, the larger and shorter catechisms).
The Meeting Times:
10.00am Sunday School
The Larger Catechism for Adults
The Child's and Shorter Catechism for the instruction of children
11.00am Lord's Day morning worship
4.00pm Lord's Day evening worship
The Meeting Place:
The Source at Meadowhall, Sheffield (rooms 15 and 16) and the website for directions is http://www.thesource.meadowhall.co.uk/
This new church plant is part of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church of England and Wales (http://www.epcew.org.uk/). We are currently building our website which should be ready, Lord willing, toward the end of the summer and the address is: www.sheffieldpres.org.uk

Jem,
Thanks for the comment and your encouragement.
Regarding the use of reformed confessions, any confession is of utmost value to every church and Christian to prevent subjectivism and private interpretations.
As you probably know the Westminster Confession was drawn up by the Westminster Assembly and it was the last of the Reformed confessions. It is without peer in the english language. The Savoy Declaration and 1689 are very similar and they are derived from the Westminster Confession.
I hope that in the years ahead that you will take time to not only read the confession but also the shorter and larger catechisms which are filled with precious biblical doctrines.
Hope that helps.
Warmly,
Kevin
