What’s On

 

Pentecost Pause

We are so thankful for the journey we have taken over the last year as we have sought to know the Holy Spirit as a person and meet Him in intimacy and in power.  To continue to focus our attention on the Father, Son & Holy Spirit we would love to invite the whole church to join us at Pentecost Pause at 7.30pm on May 18, 2024 here at the church. This event seeks to foster an environment where the Spirit can move amongst us and for you to personally encounter Him as the God who is More than Able to do exceedingly and abundantly all we can ask for or imagine, for His glory!
Experience a night of intimacy, intercession, and impartation, as we seek to be filled with the Holy Spirit in a greater way, individually and as a church. We’ll be worshipping from the heart, listening to God and praying for healing. Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to connect with God and each other. Encourage your life groups to join (or even make this your LG meeting for the month!), and bring the whole family to worship together. See you there! 
Dates: Saturday 18 May 2024
Time: 7.30 pm

Child Dedications

We believe that child dedication is a powerful moment in every child’s life because they are so precious to God. In the public act of dedication, our church family, together with you, come together to seek God’s blessing upon your child. We pray for your child and declare that the power of the meaning of the name you have chosen for them will be seen in their life. Child dedication is a time of celebration and rejoicing for the whole family, and a spiritual investment for the future.

If you’d like to publicly dedicate your child to God during our Mother’s Day service on 12 May, please click the button below to register.
