Church news for the week beginning 2nd December 2017
This weekend’s Bible Talk
This weekend, we continue our series looking at 2 Samuel as Jodie preaches from chapter 21 verses 15 to 22 and chapter 23 verses 8 to 39, with the title, “The might of the king’s men”.
Mission of the month
Church Missionary Society (CMS) is our mission of the month. Support this ministry through the ‘Mission Table’ in the Hall.
Midweek Service
This Thursday 7th December at 11am we’re having our next ‘Midweek service’ in the church, followed by a light lunch. This is an ideal time to come together, especially for those who may find our weekly services to be a challenging time of the day. Bring along old and new friends for a service that is aimed to serve both regular churchgoers and those who may not have been along before, or at least for a long time.
Dinner at the Bowlo
Join us this Thursday at 6pm at the Jamberoo Bowling Club for a relaxed Chinese meal together.
Carols in the Park
Enjoy Carols in the park under the stars at Jamberoo on Tuesday 12th December, starting at 7pm, located at Reid Park. Bring all the family along to enjoy and evening of Inter-church Carols. Bring a blanket or a chair and settle in for a lovely evening of Carols supported by the Salvation Army Band.
Christmas Carols Service
On Saturday 16th December, two Saturdays before Christmas, we’re opening our doors at 5pm for a night of Christmas Carols. Invite your friends for this great night of singing and sharing about the saviour of the world!
Christmas Day at 9.30am
Join us at the special time of 9.30am on Christmas Day for an all-age, community celebration of the birth of Jesus!
