Dear Border Church Family,
This week we will be having Church in our regular venue at the QCWA Hall at 169 Griffith Street, Coolangatta. Parking can be found on Griffith and Boundary Streets as well as on Marine Parade. For shaded parking you can park under Twin Towns. We will be meeting at 10am and look forward to spending time with you.
Border Church this Week
This week we have a special message called "Mic Drop: My Very Last Sermon". I won't give much away on this, so you will have to turn up or tune in to listen.
Kids/Youth Church will be running for the time that the service is on, directly after the worship.
We always have a healthy plant-based fellowship lunch after Church. This week we are having italian and even more, we are celebrating Erina's first birthday. We would love you to join us for this time of fellowship. Our lunch schedule can be found here - https://border.church/pages/church-luncheons-roster
This Weekend
Border Youth is back on tonight. This week we have a games night. Jenga, Celebrity Head and other challenges await!
News and Upcoming Events
Save the Date! August 10 at Border Church we have a special guest speaker, our good friend Graham Hood will be bringing us a special message and update on the cause of freedom in our country.
Our sowing season is coming up in September. We will run two workshops for this season - Enhance your Gut Health and a Food education workshop. We will provide programs for children and youth during this same time. After these two worshops conclude, we will have additional lifestyle education programs running weekly at various times during the week. Twice a year at Border Church we suspend our regular programming to serve our community during our weekly meetings. Service is the highest form of worship and so we look forward to connecting with the needs of our community this September.

Weekly meetings
Wednesday Prayer Meeting
Prayer meetings are on Wednesdays at 3pm at 179 Botanical Circuit, Banora Point. Please message me or speak to Lorraine if you have any prayer requests we can add to our list. All are welcome to join as we pray for our community and upcoming projects.
Sealed & Revealed
Season 2 of Sealed & Revealed has begun with a Zoom session on Wednesdays at 6pm. In this series we will look at the New Testament interpretation of apocalyptic prophecies (minus the book of Revelation) to explore how the Apostles projected forward their expectations of the end times.
If you would like to catch up on previous studies in this series, recorded sessions can be found on the secret YouTube playlist here:
Bible Discovery Groups
For 2024, make it a resolution to begin or to join at least one Discovery Bible Reading Group. They are super simple to do and a great way to learn in community with others, especially those new to the Bible. You can get something out of this no matter what level you are at. We would love to show you how to lead one of these groups simply. Please let us know if you would like to start one.
Other worship opportunities
We run Alpha small groups on a regular basis and if you would like help hosting one for your friends or loved ones to discover Jesus and the basics of the Bible, please let us know.
We look forward to seeing you on Saturday at 10am.
Blessings
love
Brendan, Alina, Victor and Erina
