Message from Greg and Roby Fallow - Thank you

"Robyn and Greg Fallow would like to acknowledge and give thanks for the many messages of love, support and comfort received from our church

family following the recent passing of our son Robert.   These messages and prayers help to sustain us during our recent loss."

 

This Sunday during the 10:30am service (which begins at 10:45am this week), children are invited to head straight to the KidSpace (instead of the Auditorium) for loads of fun activities and great Biblical learning.

This week's teaching is Lazarus is raised from the dead from John 11: 1-45.

Have you been part of our church community for a while, but aren’t sure how to get involved?

Are you wondering whether there’s a place for someone like you to serve? The answer is yes! If you have a heart to serve and a desire to be part of what God is doing here, we welcome you to step in and make a difference. No matter your experience, there’s a place for you. 

Learn more about the many opportunities to serve.

 

We gently encourage you to remember St Columba in your will or estate plans. Bequests – no matter the size – can help us realize our visions for ministry and mission. If you would like to discuss this matter further, please feel free to talk to Caleb. Thank you for your faithful support.
