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 9:30am (QLD), 10:30am (NSW) and look forward to spending time with you. 

Border Church this Week

This week we have special guest speaker Sue Baynes, pastoral adviser to Mayor Tom Tate of the Gold Coast City Council. Sue is passionate about the unity of the Body of Christ and the impact of the Church in the civil sphere. She brings a message of "From Me Church to We Church". 

Kids/Youth Church will be running for the time that the service is on, directly after the worship. 

This week will be bitter sweet as we say good bye for now to one of our leadership team. Paul Mackie has been our head deacon and has worshipped with us for over a year. He moves on to a new career, studying a Master of Education. The next season of his life will be in Victoria and we will send him off with a commissioning to grow the Kingdom in new pastures. 

We always have a healthy plant-based fellowship lunch after Church. This week we are having a Asian-themed food. 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

Border Youth is on tonight - 5:30-7:30pm. This week we will have a mix of indoor and outdoor games, depending on the weather.

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 9:30am (QLD) or 10:30am (NSW)

Blessings
love
Brendan, Alina, Victor and Erina
