Pastor’s Letter – December 8
G’day Church, This Sunday we’re getting into the Christmas spirit as we being in Matthew’s gospel together, but we might be surprised by how Matthew helps us get ready for the birth of Jesus: A family tree that spans more than 1000 years! Fortunately we don’t need to wait that long to celebrate – Christmas is only 19 sleeps away! What’s…
Pastor’s Letter – December 1
G’day Church, This Sunday is the third instalment in our short series on The Holy Spirit. It’s been really timely to reflect on and celebrate the Holy Spirit’s work in us on the back of our time considering God’s purposes for us as his church, which are so closely bound up in the Holy Spirit’s presence and work in our midst. And it…
Pastor’s Letter – November 24
Hello Church, Here are few things to bring to your attention this week: This coming Monday the 25th our friends at Engage Work Faith are hosting an excellent discussion on the future of AI.

Hello Church, How are you feeling about God’s purposes for us?

Pastor’s Letter – November 3
G’day Church, We’re spending five weeks reflecting on what it means to be Church On Purpose. This week we reflect on God’s good purpose of us serving together in ministry – each of us playing a part in the work that God is doing in and through us. I don’t think anything could sum this up better than the morning we will share the following…
Pastor’s Letter – October 20
Hi All, We had a great time beginning our Church on Purpose series last Sunday. We asked the question, “what’s the point of church?”, and looked forward to God’s ultimate plan for his people, gathered around the throne and worshipping Jesus for all eternity. We anticipate that future as we gather together each Sunday, worshipping Jesus and seeing…
Pastor’s Letter – October 13
Hi All, Over the next five weeks at church we’ll be doing something a little different to normal. Rather than our normal pattern of working through books of the Bible, we’re going to be spending five weeks thinking about church. Particularly, what the purpose of church is. Sometimes when we come to church we might turn up and go through the motions a bit. We…
