Celebration Sunday

25/11/2014

0 Comments

 
As the year draws to a close its a great time to give thanks to our God for his goodness to us this past year at our Celebration Sunday service.

This year as we prepare for Celebration Sunday I would like to ask you to do something that will help us worship God and encourage one another as we meet together on that morning.

Would you please take some time out in the next week to reflect on your year and how you have grown as a follower of Jesus and make some notes for what you would like to give thanks to God for.

As a tool for doing so I have attached a link to a document with some questions in it. Please print it out, fill it out and return it at our Celebration Sunday service.

The idea of this questionnaire is:
1. to help you reflect on your year and celebrate,and also
2. to help our planning for the coming year.

Set aside 30 minutes of quiet time to think and reflect on your year as a follower of Jesus. Ask God to bring to mind those ways in which he has guided, gifted and grown you this past year. The questionnaire is anonymous and your feedback will be invaluable as we make plans for next year.

Our church would love to invite you and your family and your friends to our next All In Family Service being held at St Andrew’s Anglican Church at 9.30 on Sunday 30th November, 2014.

This will be a very special event as we have invited Naomi Reed to come and perform her celebrated “The Zookeeper” at our church for our local community. Naomi Reed’s ‘The Zookeeper’ is a gospel story told through vibrant music, drama, dance and puppets. It captures the imagination of all the family, kids and adults alike. 


"Engaging and moving. Playschool meets C.S.Lewis meets the Gospels
 to bring us the big sweep of the Bible." - Kirk Patston

Naomi Reed is the award-winning 
author of ‘My Seventh Monsoon’ and four other books. 
Her years in Nepal have led to more 
than 350 speaking engagements at churches 
and large conventions around Australia, 
the UK, Holland and North America. 
Her books have now sold more 
than 50,000 copies worldwide.


Naomi is joined by Bruce Wheatley (musician and song-writer), Melanie Grouse and Sam Wallace (actors) to perform The Zookeeper as a one-hour full performance with music, puppets and interactive songs throughout. 

The performance will be followed by a scrumptious morning tea.
