Sunday Mornings

On Sunday mornings we meet at 9:30am for worship. All ages join together for the start, and then we divide into two: Godly Play for kids aged around 3-11, and a more traditional worship service for the adults. Communion is celebrated on the third Sunday of the month, and everyone, of all ages, is welcomed. After the service each Sunday we invite everyone to join us for morning tea and a chance to catch up with old friends and make new ones.

Everyone is welcome at all of our services. If you’d like to know more, please feel free to contact our minister, Chris, on 0402 012 418 or minister@stjohnswahroonga.org.

Listen!
Romans 12:9-16b | Luke 1:39-57
Over the past couple of weeks we’ve been exploring the implications of Pentecost; the meaning of this thing that came into being in the few years after the death and resurrection of Jesus, this international and intergenerational movement that we have today invited and welcomed Claudia and Savannah to be part of.…

Proverbs 8:1-11 | John 16:12-15
Last Sunday, Pentecost Sunday, we placed the mystery of Pentecost in the context of the ancient story of the tower of Babel; and I reflected on the way that the story of Babel, along with many other narratives in the Old Testament and New, speaks against the power of human empire, declares the seductive danger of uniformity.…
