A big opportunity for the church

1. When our world is shaken, it’s easy for fear to spread. But God promises to be with us no matter what comes our way. In times of uncertainty, it’s more important than ever to trust who God is and how He says we can live—Not Afraid.

Pastoral care

Caring for your congregation and your neighbours is vital in a high stress time such as this.

We are putting together a plan how we all can reach out to our friends and neighbours in this time which will include:

· Text for help (just text “help” to 0447161457) and our pastoral team will assist you.

· Home delivery (help with picking up medication, groceries etc)

· Life Groups - while we can’t meet in larger groups it is a great opportunity to meet with a few friends. Do you want to join a life group or a ministry? (click link)

Giving

We are excited to launch our new platform for giving which will make donating to our ministries and our weekly offering simple.
