    Weekly Bulletin: Staying connected as a church - 16 June 2024

    • 13 Jun 2024
    • St John's in the City
    • Kia ora St John’s whānau, This Sunday Martyn Day will preach on the Bible passage Luke 1:26-38 – which is about the birth of Jesus being announced to Mary! We would normally hear this part of the Gospel story just before Christmas – what will Martyn draw out of this passage for us this Sunday? Students, staff and families from Aitken House at Scots College will join us for worship, with students leading parts of our worship. The burning bush is a symbol of Aitken House. Our children have their peer group time, going out part-way through the service (after the Sung Blessing). Our youth will stay in for the full service this Sunday. If you can’t gather in the city, and you want to join the worship service via Zoom, here are the details to access the live-stream: Zoom Meeting ID: 370 260 759 Passcode: worship The link to join the Zoom worship service is below. If using your phone: dial 04 886 0026 (Meeting ID: 370 260 759#, Passcode: 1560107#) This is the link to the printable Service Sheet: Order of Service Link to Zoom Service OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT... UNDERSTANDING THE BIBLE This series of evening workshops with Martyn Day will give you a ‘toolkit’ to read the Bible, SO THAT you can know Jesus better. Sun 16th June - Can we trust the Gospels? Mon 17th June - Taking God’s Word for it Tue 18th June - Get into the Gospels! Wed 19th June - Lifting the lid on the book of Revelation 6:30 – 8:30pm in the St John’s Centre, on the corner of Dixon and Willis Streets Martyn Day pastors the South Harbour Vineyard Church in Auckland. A British export to NZ, Martyn is passionate about helping people to love, learn and live God’s Word. He is an outstanding communicator and this series will be of great interest to anyone curious about useful tools for reading the Bible. This series offers fresh understanding of the rich meaning in God’s Word available through classic interpretive techniques that ‘connect the dots’!

In her role as the Advanced Care Planning Coordinator with Age Concern, Kay has some insights for us on how to plan for our own later days to keep it simple for ourselves, our caregivers and our near and dear. DUTY ROSTERS – SERVING OTHERS It’s time to prepare the rosters for serving in July - October. Please let Linda van Milligan know your availability for this season by 20 June. UPDATE ON CAFÉ All the residents of the Dixon Street Flats have been moved out – so what has happened to the regular Café St John’s has been part of…? Read all about the next phase of the Café here: St John's Café FOLLOW ME SERIES – CARE FOR CREATION How can we practice the care of creation as an act of worship? Over four weeks we will explore the practice of Care for Creation. This continues our emphasis of putting our faith into practice, and will focus on our desire for knowing God more through intentional practices, relationships, and experiences. We will be doing this as a community of all generations, starting with an intergenerational service on Sunday 23rd June. STUDENT STUDY SPACE A massive thank you to the big team of volunteers who were the ‘friendly face’ of us as a Church for students wanting a warm quiet space to study. Making this space available for the students in our city preparing for their exams was an experiment for us as part of our Vision to connect more with our neighbourhood – creating safe spaces to be, to belong, and to navigate the tough stuff. We continue to pray for those with exams, and that they may know the support of our community throughout the year, and for ‘all of life’. CHURCH CAMP We’re excited to let you know there's a church camp happening this year! It's at Paekakariki Holiday Park from Fri evening 20 Sept till Sunday 22 Sept. We’ll be aiming to keep costs down and you can choose to sleep in the lodge, pitch a tent or stay in an onsite cabin (more details will be available at a later stage.) (FYI - El Rancho/Forest Lakes and Kaitoke were booked for this date.)
