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 we made fingerprint keyring gifts for the special men in our lives, just in time for Father’s Day.  Happy Father’s Day to all dads, grandpas, and other male role models in our community!

Next week we will be celebrating Playgroup’s birthday and giving thanks for 38 years of playgroup ministry.  There will be balloons and party hats, so come and join in the fun!

A NIGHT 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 Choosing Life and following God.

Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the LORD your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. (Deuteronomy 30:19B-20A)

The path to follow God leads to the path of eternal life. Whoever believes in him will one day get to live with him forever in Heaven.  What a gift.

MEALTIME PRAYER

For the food we share, for loved ones who care, and for days so fair – we thank you, God. Amen.

PRAYER

Lord Jesus, teach us to put you ahead of everything else. Please give us the real life that

only you can give. Amen.

BLESSING

(Name) Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.  Amen.
