Pastors Letter

Hello Church, I’ve had some great chats with people about Leviticus coming out of the passages we looked at last Sunday. We’re going to have lots of curly questions come up as we make our way through this rich and complex book. Along the way, I think it’s helpful to see that Leviticus is not just a book of rules. This is more than just legislation,…

Hello Church, We’ve got one more week in our short series from Psalms before we jump into Leviticus next week. I’ve been so encouraged during our time in the Psalms. They’re unusual in scripture as ancient words spoken to God, now provided as God’s word spoken to us today, so that we might in turn make them our words as we speak to God any day. I…

Hello Church, Well winter has certainly landed! It’s cold and dark and wet, there’s heaps of cold and flu going around, and to top it off for a number of our households – the kids are home on school holidays! Isn’t it great that we can continue to enjoy the warmth of our fellowship in Christ. Here are a few things going on around our community over…

Hello Church, God is so kind to graciously bring us into relationship with him as our father and to therefore bring us into relationship with each other as his family.

In addition to having some great family time and good refreshment, Long Service Leave gave our…

Hi Everyone, We had a lovely Belong lunch after church on Sunday for a small group of people who are newer to our church. A couple of weeks ago, I emailed you a summary of the first half of what we talk about at Belong – what we think it means to belong to God. If belonging to God is the ‘vertical’ dimension of what we think belonging to church is all…

Hi Everyone, Next Sunday, June 15, we’re putting on a small “Belong Lunch” for a few newcomers who’ve joined our church over the past couple of months. I’m looking forward to taking the group through a few key things around what it means to ‘belong’ at Trinity Church Brighton. And I thought perhaps it would be helpful to share…

Hi Everyone, This week at church we’re looking forward to welcoming Mike Waskiel, who’ll be preaching for us from Acts 4. Mike is the Campus Director of the university Christian ministry at Flinders Uni, Flinders Evangelical Students (ES). He works closely with Lauren, a much-loved member of our church and someone we have a strong desire to support in her…
