May Update...
Sunday Gatherings in May
6:30pm Sundays (except the last of the
month) Breathe will be gathering in the Waterfront Function Centre to
examine more of the big questions of life and spirituality. How do we think
spiritually about the everyday things of life like work, finances, friendships,
family and more? There are the everyday realities we see, but is that all there
is to consider in how we live? Or are there many layers to our existence that
can bring us helpful perspectives if we explore them? All are welcome to come
along and explore.
English
Conversation Group meets weekly
Due
to the success of ECG the group is now running 7:30pm each Wednesday night
(except the last of the month) at the Wentworth Point Community Library, in the
Piazza Wentworth Point. Its a safe and relaxed space to practice English
conversation skills with our friendly trained facilitators and others who are
seeking to learn. Could you or anyone you know benefit? Contact Michael Villis:
0402908147.
Vinnies
Team grows again!
Recently we have seen our team that shares food and
friendship with our friends who are living rough in Penrith and Parramatta
growing further. Some have done training with St Vincent de Paul, others are
still exploring the idea by talking with team members. A new team member who
recently did their first Vinnies run commented on what a humbling experience it
was, whilst others continue to look forward to their next opportunity to go out
on the team. Would you or someone you know like more info? Contact Kath
Simmonds: 0401972649. Next run is from
6:30pm May 26.
Prayer for Wentworth Point
7:00pm Monday May 14 will
be another great opportunity for Jesus’ followers from different churches to come
together based on their common ground... their love for Jesus and their home
suburb of Wentworth Point. All welcome to Nicole’s to be part of the prayer partnership!

personal relationship with Jesus.

You
might have just read that and be thinking: I don’t have much of a spiritual
life at all – my prayer life is limited, spasmodic and when it happens, distant
and mechanical…. If that is you, then this seminar will offer you tools and
practical advice to rekindle that side of your faith expression – without
sacrificing active community engagement and zeal for social justice in the
process. Moving in signs and wonders will also be explored and the question
will be asked: how do I mix into a healthy balance, the three different
important things: works, words and wonders?
With
Bob and Grace Ekblad, Darryl Gardiner, and Jon Owen (our friend from Urban Neighbours
of Hope Mt Druitt). Plus Jean Vanier,
and Martin Robinson from the UK (Martin is with the Church of Christ and
Springvale College Connection, historian, church planter) will be skyping in.
