🚑 FIRST AID LEVEL 1 – SUCCESS! 🚑

Yesterday, a group of our ministry leaders successfully completed the St John First Aid Level 1 Course. Throughout the day, they learned practical skills including CPR, AED use, managing bleeding, fractures, shock, and responding to common medical emergencies.

A big thank you to Tiripa for organising this opportunity and to everyone who attended. Your willingness to invest your time in learning these life-saving skills is a blessing to our church and community. 🙏

We’re grateful to have leaders who are not only passionate about ministry but also equipped to care for others when emergencies arise.

👏 And we’re not finished yet—another group will be completing the course next Sunday!

✨ Kingdom Café ✨

Last month’s theme “Seek Ye First the Kingdom” from Matthew 6:33
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

A reminder for all youth and young adults to keep God first above everything else, trusting Him to lead every part of our lives, with earnest prayer, prioritising our time and space, and always seeking his righteousness...

A big thank you to Toby, Conor, and Malik for sharing their powerful testimonies, and special thanks to Vaihoumata from Fields Church Youth for blessing us with spoken word and sharing her personal walk with Jesus.

We pray everyone left encouraged, challenged, and inspired to seek God first daily 🙏

🌪️ Weather Update – Tropical Cyclone Vaianu (Auckland) 🌧️

Dear church family,

For those of us in Auckland and the upper North Island, there is an important update regarding Tropical Cyclone Vaianu, expected to make landfall late Saturday night into Sunday morning.

MetService advises that this could be a significant and potentially damaging storm, but thankfully, we still have time to prepare.

🛠️ A few simple steps to consider:
• Secure or bring inside anything that could be blown away
• Clear drains and gutters
• Prepare for possible power outages
• Check in on family and neighbours

❤️ Let’s also take this as an opportunity to show care and love to our local community. A simple check-in or helping someone prepare can make a real difference.

🔗 Stay updated through:
• MetService
• Auckland Civil Defence
• www.getready.govt.nz

Stay safe everyone, and let’s continue to look after one another 🙏
