Our next Big Day In event is tommorrow (March 30) for a Church picnic. This event replaces our usual morning service.

Due to the threat of bad weather we will be meeting at Mawarra School Hall, rather than at The Sisters of Mary property.

This is a perfect time to relax and connect with fellow members of our congregation.

Please join us from 10am. We are aiming to eat at 11am and conclude at 12:30pm. Bring your own lunch and we will have BBQ facilities available also.

There will be a movie for the kids and toys for the little ones as well.

We are looking forward to seeing you there!

If you would like an easy way to earn some very helpful pocket money for Steve and Nat here is a great suggestion.

Drop off your empty bottles and cans at church each week into the blue crate under the COLA and Sue will drop them to the Return and Earn program.

If you have a large load and need some assistance with a pick up, speak to Sue or contact her on 0401396761.

The eligible containers are shown below.

The money raised goes towards the cost of transporting the family’s groceries from town to their tribal village via helicopter. With growing kids and fuel prices rising this is an ever increasing cost and something they can't do without.

A huge thank you to those who regularly support this ministry with their contributions.

Over the past 6 years this has raised nearly $12,000 - a fantastic result for such a simple scheme.

The suggested Daily Bible Study for 2025 is from Got Questions.

This is available as an app for Apple and Android phones and also as a website.

Follow the link below to learn more and see some sample questions and answers.

Also, you may have heard several people refer to 'Lectio' over the past few months.

Lectio 365 is a free app (Apple and Android) that is a daily devotional to help you pause in the presence of God.

It is written (and vocalised) by leaders of the 24-7 Prayer movement. Their website is https://www.24-7prayer.com.

With Lectio 365 you pray the Bible by meditating on the scriptures and asking God to speak through them.
