OUR BIBLE TALK

LET’S TALK ABOUT PARENTING
Next weekend we welcome Tony and Judy Willis, who will be joining us to help us explore the topic ‘Let’s Talk About Parenting’. Tony will be preaching on Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and Ephesians 5:21 – 6:4, and copies of their book will be available at the special price of just $5. We will also be officially welcoming Gemma Bartlett (and her family) during the services next weekend.

AUSTRALIA DAY
The Smith’s are hosting their annual Australia Day event at the dam again! They invite you to come along this Tuesday and spend a day swimming, jumping and eating with good company at the Smith’s farm, 261 Jamberoo Mountain Road. Bring all your goodies for a BBQ picnic lunch and a sun shelter if you have one. Please also be aware of the current Covid-19 rules by visiting the NSW Health website.
MORNING PRAYER IN RECESS
For the next few weeks we’re having a break from our daily morning prayer on Zoom, but we’d love you to join us when we begin again.

Our mission of the month is Gafcon. To support this great ministry, buy and donate from the mission table in the hall.
