Weekly Bulletin: Staying connected as a church -2 July 2023

Kia ora St John’s whānau,
 
We gather for worship this Sunday as usual at 10am and the Youth Group will lead us in worship, emphasising we are part of an upside-down Kingdom.

The Youth Group have been exploring the shape of our communal worship, guided by Isaiah, the Major Prophet in the Hebrew scriptures.
 
All the young people will remain in for all of this special service.
