This Sunday we are beginning our Advent series 🎄📯🌟

The lead up to Christmas for many is stressful and noisy. But when we look at the themes of Advent they seem in stark contrast to our experience of December. Advent is a season where the Church has traditionally prepared for the coming of Jesus, a season of waiting, watching, anticipating. This Advent series we want to consider how the practice of waiting can form us increasingly into a people of hope, peace, joy & love if we allow it to, and what that might mean for both our experience of the festive season and for those who cross our path.

We'd love to see you there, 10:30am in the hall 🙌

This Sunday we continuing our series on the Kingdom of God, unpacking what this means for today and how it gives hope for the future. We'd love it if you joined us as we nerd out on some theology over tasty brews. See you at The Abbey, 87 Forest Lake Road, Hamilton. Much Aroha!

Jesus told us to pray "Your kingdom come", but what does the in breaking of God's kingdom now and in the future mean for our day to day? Does it bring hope or a sense of dread?

We are excited to be starting our new series for the month of November, nerding out on some theology, wrestling with some big questions, debunking some unhelpful ways of thinking, all with the hope that we can experience the peace and joy that comes from knowing King Jesus and living life increasingly with him in his kingdom.

We'd love to see you there, 10:30am at Holy Trinity. Much love!

This weekend we are taking a break from our normal rhythms and again carving out time to sabbath, Saturday night to Sunday evening. We want to step back from the hustle and the harried pace of life long enough so that we can truly stop, rest, delight and worship both in community and personally.

SATURDAY - we are encouraging everyone to begin with dinner on the Saturday night, either with family or friends to welcome in the Sabbath together.

SUNDAY - On Sunday morning we are gathering with our friends at St. Francis Church Hillcrest for their 10am service with coffee and chats afterwards.

Join us this Sunday as we worship Jesus together, come around his table and consider what it means to live as citizens of heaven.

Looking forward to seeing you!
