25th June 2021
Grace & peace to you! It has been such a blessing to be back together in person. The Mainly Music group met on Thursday morning for their end of term session- meeting in the church firstly then outside for play under the blue sky. The Board of Management, ladies bible study and craft group have all been able to meet again on the property. Thank you to all those making the effort to adjust quickly and make it all work under changing conditions.

Please book in now for the 10am or 4pm services via this link .
Bookings close 8pm Saturday, and we expect to be at capacity. Please let us know if you have booked and then are unable to come, so we can fill the place.
This Sunday we need to continue with our current limits. Clearly, we cannot all fit at the morning service, so please consider how you can serve others in your decision. Over the school holidays could be a good opportunity for some to visit the Sunday afternoon service. There will be creche available in the hall during the morning service.
Plan to arrive early to check-in. Remember to bring a mask, a bible & a drink/water bottle (no morning/afternoon tea this week).
Thanks to everyone who contributed to the food share box – another delivery was made through the week. Food Share in Greensborough
supports a number of families in need in the Diamond Valley & Uni Hill areas, including some international students. They appreciate our support very much.

Bible Reading:
Luke 12:13-34
Sermon
: “Fear of the Future”
I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Saviour, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.
– 1 Timothy 2:1-4
