OUR BIBLE TALK

This week we will hear from the Jodie on the last sermon from our series on Acts, ‘Launching the Church’ as we look at Paul’s surprising journey into ‘Rome at last’, and the beginning of the end of his ministry in the new era of the church as we look at Acts chapters 27 and 28.

MISSION OF THE MONTH

Our mission of the month is Scripture in Schools (SRE). You can support the SRE ministry by donating and buying from the mission table in the hall.

CHRISTMAS SERVICES

This year we will be having our first-in-a-long-time Christmas Eve service! Come join us this Tuesday night at 6pm on our new church lawn for a free sausage sizzle, then an open-air night of carols and fellowship… followed by icy poles!

Our regular Christmas day service will be at 9am in the church with a service of Holy Communion with traditional hymns and readings. Plan to come to both for a full, Christmas experience!
