WORSHIP AT ST PAUL

Everyone is welcome to attend the worship service held in the church each Sunday at 9.30am. Tea and coffee are offered for an opportunity for fellowship after the service each week.

PALM SUNDAY

Palm Sunday occurs on the Sunday before Easter (which is this Sunday, 29 March) and commemorates triumphant Jesus’ arrival into Jerusalem, where he entered the city knowing that he would be tried and put to death on a cross, but also that he would rise from the grave and save all of humankind from their sin. Jesus came to show that had not come to establish an earthly kingdom, and so did not ride in on a horse or chariot as expected, but on a donkey: a sign of humility and peace.

The name 'Palm Sunday' came from the crowds of people in Jerusalem laying down palm branches and joyfully celebrating the arrival of their King. The people also shouted ‘Hosanna’, which means ‘please save us.’ In many churches, the building is decorated with palm leaves, either inside or out to commemorate that we celebrate Jesus as our King and as a reminder that we welcome Jesus into our hearts and therefore our willingness to follow him.

PLAYGROUP @ ST PAUL

Held every Tuesday during term time from 9-10.30am in the Hall, 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.

No bookings are required, just bring a drink bottle and healthy snack for you and your child and join in the fun.

This week we made turtles at the craft table and played with the ocean animals in the messy tray.

Next week we will be celebrating Easter with Easter Crafts, an Easter book and an Easter Egg hunt. You are welcome to come dressed in a little bit of Easter fun.

For more information about anything playgroup related contact Kylie Koelman in the Church Office on 8262 4690 or email at office@stpaul-church.org.au
