I’m New

A warm welcome to you!

If you’re new to ECN – or simply exploring faith – we’re so glad you’re here. Visiting a church for the first time can feel like a big step, but we want you to feel relaxed, welcomed, and at home from the moment you arrive.

Whether you’re just beginning to ask questions about God, returning to church after some time away, or looking for a place to belong, there is room for you in our church family.

Let us know you’re here

What to Expect When You Visit

A Friendly Welcome

From the moment you walk through the doors, you’ll be greeted by people who are genuinely glad to see you. Our Welcome Team is here to help with anything you need.

A Vibrant Service

Our 10:30am Celebration Service includes contemporary worship, inspiring Bible teaching, and a warm, faith‑filled atmosphere. You’re free to participate as much or as little as you feel comfortable.

Something for Everyone

We have dedicated programmes for children and young people, run by trained and caring teams. Your family will be well looked after.

Come As You Are

There’s no dress code, no expectations, and no pressure. Just come as you are.

Where to Find Us

Lodge Way, Northampton, NN5 7SL. There’s plenty of parking on site, and our Welcome Team will help you find your way around.

Stay for a Chat

After the service, we’d love you to stay for refreshments, meet some of the team, and get to know a few people. Church is all about community, and we’d love to help you feel part of it. Join us in the Welcome Lounge.
