Engaging at Easter
As we continue to connect more and more with our community, the next few months give us great opportunities.
1. Please make time each week to build a relationship with your neighbours and friends which is intentionally aimed at them coming to know Jesus.
2. Help Shane and his team deliver the Easter baskets to families who already havesome connection with our church.
3. Work out how you can contribute to our Easter Fair on the 27th March. This will be the Moombara Street’s last “open house” before the major building occurs. We will invite the community to have a great time while they also help us raise funds.
4. Plan to be at the outdoor Easter Sunday Celebration on 4th April next to Lake Illawarra with your contacts. It will be a day where Jesus resurrection will be proclaimed before a watching world.

Under Construction
Over the last few weeks we have been challenged by the teachings of Jesus to live radically transformed lives. His message is “Repent for the kingdom of heaven is near”. This rule of Jesus is to be seen in our actions and our words. It is like we are under construction!
During the next 8 months we will be watching our site at Moombara Street go “under construction”. We will have weeks like today when its harder to get into the building. There will be other challenges and struggles too. We face the pain so there will be great future gain!
Nothing can compare with the future coming Kingdom of Heaven. However many years God gives us before we enter that kingdom, are construction years. He is building us into kingdom people and He is calling us to invite the community around us to become kingdom people. The rest of our time on earth is really time we spend under construction.
