A few families from the parish are going to NewWine Wk 1 this year and to make it even more special we would love it if more people wanted to join us.
It’s a great time of fellowship and teaching and a time when many people would say it refreshes them spiritually.

See in the Feb – April newsletter how everyone can commit to make small (or big) changes through Lent (the period from Ash Wednesday on 26 Feb to Easter) to make a positive impact on our precious world, God’s amazing creation. Also see the Plastic Free Lent challenge sheet and, in the newsletter, the Special Offer from the editor of reduced price Lent Booklets.
We are looking for new members from all 3 worship centres who would like to join a small group of us who are looking at ways of how we can continue to show the love of Jesus in our parish.
It’s an interesting time as we have so many opportunities to do new things and try new ways of outreach in the area which is seeing many changes.
If you would like to know more or find out when our next meeting is please contact Tonia [email protected]
Meets at SJCC from 2 to 3pm and all are welcome.
Each session is self-contained and all materials will be supplied.
