July might not be a classic month for celebration, but as the school year comes to a close, we’re looking back at the last year and celebrating!

We have a rhythm as a church family of taking time in the summer, at the end of each academic year, to celebrate what God has done, remind ourselves of our vision as a church, and look forward to what is to come.

This is what we were doing last Sunday in our celebration and this time round it has been particularly significant. Partly because of some exciting news we had to share, and partly because, from September, we heading into a shift of gear as a church family.

If you weren’t able to be at the celebration or you’re simply wanting to get to know Church at Barking Riverside that little bit more, then the video below has been specially recorded for you. Taking the presentation from Sunday (complete with snaps!) we’ve added audio to share all that we spoke about as we celebrated together.

So, whether you make a coffee and get comfortable, or plug in your headphones on your walk or commute, take some time to listen and join us in celebrating as we look forward together.
