News and Events for week beginning 5th October 2014

Holiday series – ‘What Jesus Wants’

Today we continue our three-week series from John chapter 17, where we listen in on the remarkable prayer of Jesus to our heavenly father. This week Geoff is looking at the final section of Jesus’ prayer as we find out, ‘What Jesus wants for his church.’

Men’s Dinner 7th October

Our next Men’s dinner is on 7th October and our special guest speaker is Archbishop Harry Goodhew. Don’t miss out on this great night of teaching and encouragement!

Baptism and Confirmation

In preparation for the Confirmation service on the Thursday 23rd October, Sophie Covetz, Amanda Milliken and Chris Milliken are getting baptised on Sunday 19th October after church at the Shellharbour harbour front. It would be great to get a bunch of us from the church to head down and support them as they make a very public declaration of their faith in Jesus.  

‘Wheel Hope’ Billy Cart Team

The second-annual Oak Flats Billy Cart Derby is on Sunday 26th October. Would you be interested in helping build a green machine that shows wheel hope? See Adam for details and to sign up for the team!
