WORSHIP SERVICES AT ST PAUL

Everyone is welcome to attend the worship service held in the church each Sunday at 9.30am.

PLAYGROUP @ ST PAUL

Held every Tuesday during term time from 9-10.30am, Playgroup @ St Paul is for children aged 0-5 and a parent/caregiver. School families are more than welcome to come across after you have done the school drop-off. We won’t be completely set up, but you are still welcome to hang out with us.

Cost is $2 per family, and your first visit is free.

Come and check out the play space, make a craft, play with playdough, explore the sensory play space, and join in with story and song time.

This week was party day as we celebrated Playgroup’s birthday. There were party hats and balloons and at the craft table we decorated cakes. This year sees Playgroup turning 38 and we thank God for the many blessings that flow in this ministry space.

Next week we will be looking at wombats with the book ‘Wombat Stew’ by Marcia Vaughan.

A NGHT OF FUN AND GAMES (Excuse the pun…)

You are welcome to come and join the church community for a night of fun out with a Board Games Night. Bring your favourite board games, a jigsaw, knitting or craft activity. The football will be on the screen as well, so you won’t have to miss any of the finals action. This is a family night, and children are more than welcome.

GROWING FAITH AT HOME

This resource is developed by the Lutheran Church of Australia and is intended to be a guide in sharing faith activities with members of your family.

Here are a few ways you could introduce faith discussions in your home and day-to-day life.

This week the Bible verses talk about how God sent Jesus into the world to save us from our sin.

Here is a saying that you can trust.

It should be accepted completely. Christ

Jesus came into the world to save sinners.

(1 Timothy 1:15a)

God is good, but our sin (the wrong things we do and the good things we don’t do) separates us from him. The only way that we can have a personal relationship with him is because Christ Jesus intercedes for us and his sacrifice through his death on the cross restores our relationship with God. That’s how much God loves you. He sent his own Son to die (and rise again) so that you could have a relationship with him. That’s a lot of love.

MEALTIME PRAYER

In grace you seek us and with love you feed us. Lord, help us serve all those who need us. Amen.

PRAYER

Lord Jesus, thank you for looking for us when we are lost and for carrying us home. Amen.

BLESSING

(Name) You are God’s treasured possession. Amen.
