Roster Update
In response to our current season and new rhythms as a small church, we have adapted our Sunday Roster to better define the roles and responsibilities required for our Sunday services, including some changes to expectations for supplying morning tea.
Please take time to read the descriptions and pray and think about how you can regularly serve, either for yourself, as a couple, or by inviting your children to join with you to serve as a family. You will notice we have included a pre-service prayer time at 9.35am — this is an open invitation to join us in prayer for the service — perhaps the most important 'job' of all!
During this time of being a small church our hope is that everyone will be part of the team on Sunday mornings to assist with the smooth running of the service. This not only lightens the load for those who currently do these jobs each week, but it grows our sense of belonging as church, helps us have a culture of serving alongside each other, and is a practical way we can love others during our time together.
In short, it is one way we live out our church values together! Thanks in advance for joining with us and signing up below!!
Love always,
Lisa
