We are uniting as a community to "drench" our town in prayer from 6pm Sat, April 18 to 6pm Sun, April 19.

🔗 CLICK HERE TO PICK YOUR HOUR:

🎯 Our Goal: We want to make sure every single hour is covered! Please check the link and try to fill an empty slot first so the chain remains unbroken for the full 24 hours.

You don’t have to book online if you are going to be present and can show up anytime for prayer during this time.

✨ If you can only pray at a specific time that is already taken, please sign up anyway! Multiple people can pray in the same slot, and the more voices the better.

Where we’ll be:
📍 Sat 6pm – Sun 6am: New Life Church (50 Reece Crescent)
📍 Sun 6am – Sun 6pm: Wānaka Community Hub (34 McDougall St)

Let’s fill the wall and see what God does! 🙏✨

This coming Sunday 2 November we will have a special combined church service which we call "Celebration Sunday" at the Luggate Memorial Centre.

We join once a month with our brothers and sisters from across the region to celebrate our Lord Jesus together.
At the end we have a potluck meal together and share in fellowship as one body.

If you are reading this, you are most welcome to join us!

You can bring a plate or finger food to share, otherwise just bring yourselves as there should be plenty to share.

Please note that we will only have a 10am morning service and NO EVENING SERVICE this Sunday.

May God bless you and keep you. See you on Sunday!

All welcome tomorrow Sunday 1 December, 5:30pm, a special service in which we'll celebrate and reflect on how good our Lord has been. It'll look slightly different than usual - we will have our meal as part of the service, not after.

- We will be in the back room instead of the bigger auditorium.

- PLEASE don't forget to bring a verse/passage/a Word/testimony etc. to share about what God has been speaking to you throughout this year and from our Bible readings.

- If you'd like to contribute with some food for our potluck meal, we may unfortunately not have the oven available so finger food is preferred. 😊

God bless you and see you tomorrow! ♥️

Dear all, you are invited this Sunday 7 April to a special church gathering starting at 1pm.

It's a potluck lunch/church meeting/planning/prayer time/fellowship, all at once! Hence why we want to meet at 1pm so we have some good time to share together in the body of Christ on a different context than the regular evening service.
The idea is to spend some time together as a church, to seek God together, to share ideas and come up with a vision of what we would like God to do with us as church this 2024.

This would be a great opportunity to share and discuss what we think we could be doing better, to encourage each other, pray for each other and enjoy each other's company and fellowship.
Please bring a plate or meal to share, but if you are unable, don't worry, still join us as the Lord always provides enough for everybody! 😊

Prayer and conversations will flow all throughout our time together and our Ps. Derik K. will be leading us too.
Sunday evening service will still take place normally at 5:30pm
May God bless you and keep you all, and see you on Sunday at 1:00pm!

In the Love of Christ,
WBC Pastor and Leadership Team

"15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.
16 Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.
17 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him."
Colossians 3.15-17
