New Sewing Group at the Beacon Centre

We popped in and meet this lovely new sewing group running at the Beacon Centre. It’s a brilliant community group run by Our Exeter and the Beacon. It helps people connect with others,  learn new skills and enjoy social sewing.

Meet Jane

Jane has started as the new co-ordinator of Hope at Home.  She’s based at the Beacon Centre and is pictured here with centre manager Kate. This is an exciting new chapter in the life of this vital charity run by Isca Community Enterprises.

Supporting Exeter Foodbank

Here at Isca we’ve keen to support our city foodbank. Our comms leader, Liz Straw, pictured right, has become an Isca Church ambassador for Exeter Foodbank after visiting the St Thomas premises with other church leaders. Liz said: “It was good to meet some of the team and to hear stories of God’s provision of food and how people’s lives are being transformed,” said Liz. “It’s interesting to learn that the Beacon Centre has the most visits from families. This is very much part of our vision here at Isca, to support local families.

Synergy Conference 2025

Loving spending time with our good friends from Hatherleigh, Exmouth and North Devon. We were taking time out from the Synergy Conference 2025 held in Derby – Synergy is a family of churches across the UK. This annual conference is an important milestone in our calendar, a great way to learn, be inspired and enjoy big worship. This year’s theme was Jesus is Lord!

Happy 3rd Birthday to The Hub!

We had a great time celebrating three years of running this youth group which meets weekly (term time) at the Beacon Centre. Big thanks to our fab volunteers who make this happen.

First Gathering of the Year!

Our First Gathering of the Year! We had a brilliant Sunday morning ! It was so good to be back, worshipping, learning and laughing – together. Lots of encouragement and challenge from Rich, Bob and Muriel, Ellie, Kath and Dave, and prophetic words from Matt, Karl, and Richmond. Listen now on Podbean: https://iscachurch.podbean.com/…/rich-cummings-and…/ And don’t miss the special treat at the end – a funky version of Be Thou My Vision, thanks to Julian!
