NEEDING TO BORROW A CAR

A couple from our church are looking for a car to borrow for an extended period. The wife is undergoing consultations and treatments for serious
eye, back and ankle issues, all at the same time. The appointments are in multiple locations in the city and in South Auckland. They do not have a car and she finds it extremely difficult and painful to walk to and to sit for extended periods on the bus. If there is a family with a car to lend over the next several months it would be an answer to prayer and they would be very grateful.  If you would like more information, please contact Bruce Dixon on 576-3529

 

 

 

 

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.
