Church news for the week beginning 11th October 2020

Pledge Sunday for 2021

On 25th October, we will be having Pledge Sunday where you can give a special one-off gift towards the 2021 budget or pledge to increase regular giving.
Please pray that our financial position improves so we can continue to have the resources to grow the ministry at our church and beyond.

We invite those who are interested in joining the roster for prayer during our services, to please speak to Sam.

Family Violence Anonymous survey

Help us to build a safer and more supportive Anglican Church for people who have experienced domestic violence. Join a research project aimed to help improve church practices. If you have had an experience of domestic violence and a current or previous link with the Anglican Church, please share your perspective.

The online survey is anonymous and anyone can take part. To find out more go to surveys.ncls.org.au/NAFVP/experience 

More information about the research is available here: https://anglican.org.au/our-work/family-violence/.
