Notices for the ‘Baptism of our Lord’ with Sophie 🙂 10/1/21

NOTICES THIS WEEK

Sophie is one leave 11-26th of January. Online church will be on pause during that time but resume on Sunday 31st of January. The Locum in Sophie’s absence in our Assistant Priest Reverend Dr Josephine Armour: joarmour@icloud.com

Archbishop +Geoff Smith wrote that ‘#ChangeTheHeart Prayer Service is a great opportunity for us to stand with our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander sisters and brothers, whilst learning more about the true history of Australia. I encourage participation in this event’.
The below is an extract from his email to clergy.
Every year Aunty Jean Phillips calls the nation to prayer in the lead up to January 26 – a day of mourning for our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander brothers and sisters.
For 2021, in light of the challenge of COVID-19, one national moment has emerged – a time to pray in unison, as we tune in together to #ChangeTheHeart of our nation. This will be a unique national service led by Aboriginal Christian Leaders simulcast on television (ACCTV), online, and on radio.

The bins are hungry for your celebration time empty containers. Please let me know if they are getting too full and I will arrange for them to be emptied- Sophie 🙂

Office arrangements in early 2021- the office will be closed in January and most of February. I will take some leave in January from the 11^th-26^th during which time Reverend Dr Josephine Armour will take the reins. When I am back, we intend to advertise the Office Administration position and fill it as soon as practical in February. Bills will continue to be paid and administration will mostly fall to me (or Jo while I am away). As you can appreciate, all administration matters can wait until our office is at full strength again would be helpful. For more contact details if you need us please check here.

A story for you– Don T has written an account of some of his amazing experiences in PNG in the 1950’s and it can be downloaded via our Friends Page here.
