online church meetings
The Ipswich Road URC building is temporarily closed due to Government restrictions, however, as a church, we are still meeting-but through the internet. For the last 5 weeks, we have been able to produce and upload services-audio and/or video, preached by the ministers of the Norwich Area United Reformed church-Rev John Potter who as you know is minister of Ipswich Road URC, but is also minister to Princes Street in Norwich and Fairland URC in Wymondham and Rev Bruno Boldrini, minister of Trinity URC in Norwich, St Peter's Jessopp Road (URC/Methodist) and Wroxham and Hoveton URC. These services may all be found on our website https://ipswichroadurc.org.uk/ . The website also has a weekly "watched words" photograph and verse by Rev John Potter, different reflections and prayer suggestions. There is also a weekly "Messy Church" for younger people.(We are making good use of John Potter's photographs!)

CHRISTMAS CAROL SINGING
For the second year Eaton Rise residents joined forces with members of United Reformed Church on Tuesday 17th December and walked around the estate singing old favourite carols.
An astounding 30 volunteers braved the wet weather to bring festive cheer to residents along Lyhart, Broadhurst and a section of Welsford Roads. Many thanks to all involved and those lovely residents who opened their curtains and gave us all a welcome wave. Afterwards we enjoyed hot drinks, mulled wine and mince pies.
A very jolly Christmas event!

Over the garden gate - garden fair - Saturday 5th may
A community gardening event ‘Over the Garden Gate’ was held at the United Reformed Church on Saturday May 5th and enjoyed by Eaton Rise residents young and old. The Master Composters demonstrated how to make good compost and intrigued the youngsters with their Wriggly Worm wormery full of lively red worms. Young wildlife enthusiasts were also invited to make ‘bug hotels’ on the Norwich in Bloom stall while their parents admired the attractive Notcutts stand and the intriguing bonsai specimens displayed by Don Yates. There was also information about recycling, allotments in Norwich and a plant stall, and refreshments provided by the church.
