🎉💙 Happy Father’s Day! 💙🎉

What a wonderful day of celebration, thanksgiving, and joy as we honoured fathers, grandfathers, and all the special father figures who make such a difference in our lives. 👨‍👧‍👦🙏

Our 10.00 am Family Service was filled with smiles, laughter, and energy! 🌈

✨ It was especially heartwarming to see our little children (and some older children too! 😊) enthusiastically joining in the action songs 🎶🙌 and enjoying creative craft activities 🎨✂️. The children lovingly made special gifts for their dads, creating precious memories and bringing lots of happy faces. 🎁💙

It was a beautiful reminder that church is a place where all generations can come together to worship, learn, laugh, and grow in faith. ⛪❤️

It was lovely catching up with so many local ladies, and a few brave gents, while raising funds for the church. Thank you to everyone who helped make it such an enjoyable afternoon! 💕"

🌈🙏 A Joyful Combined Service and Fellowship 🙏🌈

What a fabulous morning we shared last Sunday as we gathered for a combined service with our friends from St Paul’s Manly!

☕🥐 We began the day with a lovely breakfast fellowship, enjoying good food, great conversations, and the warmth of Christian friendship.

👏💛 A special thank you to the wonderful team who prepared and served breakfast. Your generosity, hard work, and hospitality helped create such a welcoming start to the day and were greatly appreciated by all.

🎶✨ Our worship was filled with colour, joy, and enthusiastic singing, made even more special as members of Cursillo waved their colourful scarves in celebration and rejoiced together in the presence of God.

📖💙 We were also privileged to hear Di Catto share a brief history of the Cursillo Movement and its important role as a lay movement within the Church. Her reflection reminded us of Cursillo’s mission to encourage and equip Christians to live out their faith with confidence, commitment, and joy in their daily lives.

🙌 It was a wonderful morning of worship, fellowship, learning, and unity, and we give thanks to God for the blessing of sharing this time together.

"How good and pleasant it is when God's people live together in unity!"
📖 Psalm 133:1

💒💛 Thank you to everyone who helped make the day so special. We look forward to many more opportunities to worship and share fellowship together.

Prayer for the people of Nepal and Tibet (from our diocesan liturgical committee)

Gracious and loving God, our lives are in your hands. When we are overwhelmed with grief and shock, confronted by mortality and the fragility of life, for others and for ourselves, remind us of your presence with us. We pray for the people of Nepal and Tibet, for all whose lives were suddenly taken; for those who remain lost in the turmoil; for their families and friends, nearby and across the world; for first responders and aid workers reaching out in care; for generosity and compassion from world leaders and all who have capacity to respond; and for those who will commit to the long term rebuilding of lives.

Challenge our complacency about climate change and the devastation brought about by human activity across the world. Comfort the people of Nepal and Tibet, bring them peace, and disturb our complacency, so that we will be agents of transformation and signs of your compassion, your love and care. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

“When Jesus speaks in Matthew 16.21–28 about suffering, loss and the cross, Peter is horrified. Like Peter, we often long for a faith that promises success, certainty and comfort. But Jesus points to a different way,” says Archbishop Jeremy Greaves

"I celebrate the richness of Australia’s multicultural life, a richness that is reflected so beautifully in the diversity of our Anglican Church in Southern Queensland."

“I am told that we are the first Church nationally to formally commend the National Anti-Racism Framework. I am proud of our Synod for taking this important practical step and supporting a whole-of-society approach to eliminating racism. This resolution provides an opportunity to demonstrate that ...
