EPC Games Night 22nd November 2025
EPC's Games Night is tomorrow. Even if you aren't as interested in playing games, we encourage you to come along, as this will be a low pressure event where people can sit and chat with a cuppa and play a game with others if they wish to.
If you have any questions please contact Kyle or email administration@elthampc.org.au.
All are welcome, we hope to see you there!
Admin News
Holly Bligh has been blessed with finding employment and has to conclude her time as our admin worker. This is great news for her, but it leaves us with a big hole which we will have to cover ASAP! Apart from the newsletter, there are many things Holly has been doing in the background that are vital for the smooth running of EPC. We thank her for her dedication to the job and for all the hand-over documents she has been working on. Holly officially finishes her role on December 1.
December and January 2026 EPC Roster Form
Ephesians 6:7: "Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men”
Hi EPC Members,
It's roster time again. It is a busy time of year for everyone with various social events and the holidays coming up, so it is essential that everyone in our church community pitches in as much as they are personally able to during this time. Please complete the December and January 2026 EPC Roster Form as soon as possible so that these rosters can be completed ahead of December. Thank you for all you do in serving at EPC.
If you have any questions, please contact Helen or email administration@elthampc.org.au

Save the Date: EPC Carols Service 20th December 2025
This year's EPC indoor carols service will be held on Saturday 20th December at 5.00 pm followed by a sausage sizzle. There will be lots of favourite Christmas carols, Bible readings, items by the Sunday School kids and the Mainly Music group, and a Christmas message from Pastor Don.
This is a great outreach opportunity to invite friends and family who wouldn’t ordinarily come to church.
We could also do with a few volunteers for the barbecue, so if you’re able to help out with food please contact Robert or email administration@elthampc.org.au.
