Dear Church, It has been some weeks since I have sent out an email. In part this is because I have had less to send. I have been attempting a new process for sermon preparation that includes preaching from the slides rather than complete notes. But this time I had prepared something to send.
Concern for everyone’s safety led us to cancel our service on Sunday. This turned out to be the right decision with most other churches following suit. It also freed me up to help a number of residents out of their flooded units in Freshwater Street including Jenny Grimshaw. I want to thank Beth, Jordan, Jackie and Sharon who all played roles in helping out. I pray that everyone else remains safe and driny. Sadly our driveway is somewhat eroded
Attached is an amended roster. Please check the details and attempt to make a swap if you can’t fulfill your roles A reminder that Sunday 30th March is a 5th Sunday and we will have lunch but no morning service.
We have partnered with We Care 2 to provide a venue for their breakfast to loney and homeless. This is because they are being chased out of Apex Park by the bats. It may be for a few weeks and possibly Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
I am in my last week of a 21/2 day/week, 4 week contract teaching at Urangan State High School. A little time stretching and I look forward to some time back. I have also been the Police Chaplain 4 hours a week. They have now contracted me that earns the church some $. A busy time but God is giving me plenty of opportunities.
I pray that in this time of Lent that you find time to reflect, remember, worship and pray.
Many blessings,
