Activities in our Church this week
Bible Study
Commencing each Tuesday morning at 9AM in the downstairs
rooms is our Bible study. Rev Maile leads the study group
utilising Rev Darren King’s notes each week. Please come along,
you are all invited to learn more about God, Jesus and their love.
TEACHING ENGLISH TO OUR MANSE BOYS
At our Uniting Church, we are so fortunate to have so
much diversity—in our congregation and in our
activities. We are particularly blessed to have the well-spoken, well-travelled Margaret (Marg) Foude take on
the role of English teacher to our Tongan, East
Timorese and Indonesian seasonal workers.
Marg creates and teaches these lessons every Tuesday night
at 7pm, and apparently the boys are really enjoying it,
and it seems like our numbers might grow!
So, on behalf of our congregation, I would like to
thank and bless our teacher Marg for all the work she
does in creating and unifying our diverse church.
God Bless Marg and all of the seasonal workers in the
Manse

IN MEMORY It is 80 years on 28th July since Pilot/Officer
Jim Hocking paid the supreme sacrifice. He and his crew were
on a final exercise in a Sterling bomber (nicknamed the Flying
Coffin) when 2 engines caught fire. After ordering his crew to
bail out, he flew the plane away from the town of March in
Cambridgeshire, but crashed in a field nearby. He was 22 years
old. His name is on our Honour Board and the Airforce Stained
Glass window in the church, given by his family in his honour.
