PASTOR'S UPDATE
DEDICATION OF ELIANA
We had a wonderful service yesterday, with many visitors and guests. We also, at the invitation of Cormac and Elissa, dedicated Eliana to the Lord. Please pray for this family and all of our families that, we would be godly husbands and wives, godly parents, and that our children would share that same desire for the glory of God.
KIDS TALK
We have been using videos during the holidays to provide a kid's spot during the service. Please let me know if you would like to share a kid's talk with in lieu of a video.
KID'S HOLIDAY CLUB
Last year, a team from Townsville ran a three-day Kid's Club in the term 3 holidays. This was well received and had a wonderful impact on our kids. I propose that we once again host a kid's holiday club this year as well. For the sake of:
- Teaching our children the Bible;
- Helping them grow in godliness and have godly relationships;
- Our church's outreach
I would invite you to consider your availability in the term 3 holidays. And if available, come to the planning meeting with ideas.
Types of things we need to plan are:
- Teaching (I propose we use the Epic Explorers curriculum)
- Activities, games and icebreakers
- Songs
- Food
- Decorations
If you are interested in serving our children in this way, please indicate on the following form: Kid's Holiday Club (Volunteer Interest)
