Pastors Letter

Hello Church, Praise God for a fantastic time together last Sunday as we gathered to sing some great carols and celebrate God’s goodness in sending his Son into the world. Not only was that first Christmas a great event in history, it is God’s story that we are a part of. And we had a full house with 180 people present, 40 of whom are not part of our church.…

G’day Church, A few notes for this Sunday: Do you have a trestle table we can use? With some great activities and a shared lunch we’re realising we’re a few tables short. The setup team will be in at the school gym at 2pm on Saturday afternoon, so if you have one or two that we can use either drop it off or let us know and we can pick it up. Church…

G’day Church, This Sunday we’re getting into the Christmas spirit as we being in Matthew’s gospel together, but we might be surprised by how Matthew helps us get ready for the birth of Jesus: A family tree that spans more than 1000 years! Fortunately we don’t need to wait that long to celebrate – Christmas is only 19 sleeps away! What’s…

G’day Church, This Sunday is the third instalment in our short series on The Holy Spirit. It’s been really timely to reflect on and celebrate the Holy Spirit’s work in us on the back of our time considering God’s purposes for us as his church, which are so closely bound up in the Holy Spirit’s presence and work in our midst.

This is a topic that lots of people are thinking about, so it’s a great chance to help them explore how faith in Jesus connects with something so practical. It’s a great invitation for…

Hello Church, How are you feeling about God’s purposes for us? It’s been great to spend the last five weeks seeing God’s purposes for church, and how that plays out in really practical ways in our life together. From chats after church and a couple of visits to growth groups, it sounds like there has been some really good discussion and reflection. We kicked off with the…

G’day Church, We are looking forward to a wonderful time together this Sunday as we celebrate the baptisms of Alison, Brayden and Cherubim. Please come to church a little earlier than usual so we can welcome visitors and help everyone find a seat ready to start at 10:00. We’ll head to the beach at Wattle Reserve for the conclusion of church and please remember…

G’day Church, We’re spending five weeks reflecting on what it means to be Church On Purpose. This week we reflect on God’s good purpose of us serving together in ministry – each of us playing a part in the work that God is doing in and through us. I don’t think anything could sum this up better than the morning we will share the following…
