News and events for the week beginning 29th December 2013

Summer Series – The Spirit-filled life

It is nothing short of a miracle that God the Holy Spirit lives within all of us who know Jesus as Lord and saviour. As the Holy Spirit lives within us, we gradually become more and more like Jesus, as we demonstrate in our lives what the Bible calls in Galatians 5:22-23 the “fruit of the Spirit.”

During the next five weeks we’ll be looking in detail at the nine aspects of the Spirit’s fruit in the life of believers. Each Sunday we’ll have a different topic in the morning and the evening, so that we will cover the full nine aspects of the Spirit’s fruit, as well as an introductory talk on the first morning.

This is also an opportunity to welcome a number of guest speakers to our church, as well as hearing our all-new Assistant Minister, Adam Hotson, teach us on two occasions.

The Hotsons have arrived!

Adam and Anita Hotson have moved into their new home and are settling in really well. Thanks to those who have made their move so smooth. Please note, there was an error in the address we published last week: it’s number 16 (sixteen) Honeysuckle Place, Albion Park Rail. Adam officially begins ministry with us on the first day of the new year.

New Rosters

Yes, it’s that time already and we’re making plans for our Term One rosters for next year. If you’re planning to be away at all from February to April then please log on to our members website and enter the dates that you’re unavailable. If you’d like to opt in or out of volunteer roles then please let Lydia know. Thanks so much for your help!
