Chapel and Assembly
Families are welcome to come along to the Church for Chapel on Wednesday mornings from 9am and to the hall for Assemblies on Friday mornings from 9am. Chapel and Assemblies will continue to be livestreamed on our closed group on Facebook each week.
Wednesday Chapel
Chapel in Term 1 has begun with a focus on the people that Jesus met and interacted with, and what we can take away from these meetings and moments in Jesus’s Life. This week we shift to the theme of Holy Week but we will continue to look at Jesus and this amazing story through the eyes of people who encountered him during this time.
Thank you to Mr Mayer for leading us today with the story of Palm Sunday: The people of Jerusalem

Week 8 (22/3) 3 Burgan: The Last Supper: Jesus Disciples
Week 9 (29/3) Miss Mattner: Garden of Gethsemane/ Jesus’ Arrest: Judas
