🔋 On Sunday Josh spoke about how our faith grows when we put into practice what we learn from the bible. So he challenged everyone to ask one of these questions and see what happens. Maybe you could try asking one of these questions today.

1. God what do you want me to do today?
2. God what do I do with what I just read/heard?

Catch part 3 of our series FaithFull this Sunday, 9:30am.

We are answering the question; "How does our trust in Jesus grow?"

Come along this Sunday to see how committed Jesus was to having his teaching applied by those that follow him, and this is good news for everyone.

On Sunday we had our Baby Dedications and NextGen Fundraiser. It was a great day to celebrate new life, our upcoming generation, and all God is doing in the lives our young people. We dedicated Matthew and Daniel Beaney, and Joshua Ruck. Congrats to the Beaney and Ruck families, we support you as you raise your little people over the coming years. After the service we had a NextGen Fundraiser for our community garden and doing up a couple of our kid's spaces. Because of the generosity of our community we raised over $2,000, thanks so much to all those that gave.
