Whanau Weekend7-8th October
Book it in – the middle weekend of the school holidays is Whanau Weekend again. Saturday night will be dinner, games and night prayer at St John’s. And on the Sunday morning, at the 9:45am service at St John’s, we’re going to do a pet blessing. So invite your whanau/family to church – be that grandchildren, nieces and nephews, great-grandchildren… this is an opportunity to share Jesus with those of a younger generation and to show them why the Parish of the Oroua is a special place for you. More details will come soon, but you can start by putting it in the diary and also thinking about what pet to bring to the service (could be real, could be your favourite pet rock or teddy bear!). |
