Upcoming Events

Young Adults Christmas Celebration

Join the Subi Young Adults (UNIted & Koinonia) on the Saturday 13 Dec at 11am for an end-of-the-year Christmas celebration! Enjoy food and fellowship at the South Perth Foreshore (next to The Boatshed Restaurant) at this outreach event. Invite any young adult or friends you may know (17-30+). Please bring a plate to share (meat or salad), and a $5 gift for Secret Santa.

Baptism Class

Water baptism not only identifies you as a follower of Christ, it is also an act of obedience. To find out more about about baptism, please join in the baptism class on Sunday 14 Dec from 2-4pm in SubiKids Room 1.
To indicate your interest and to obtain a Baptism information booklet, contact Pastor Max Graieg (max.graieg@subiacochurch.com).

Hour of Prayer

Come join us for a time of worship and prayer at our final Hour of Prayer for the year on Wednesday 17 Dec from 7pm to 8pm in the church auditorium as we seek God's face and intercede on behalf of our church, families, community and country.

Community Coffee Morning

Join us in the church cafe on Thursday 18 Dec from 9am - 11am for an outreach to those in our community who don't necessarily attend a church presently. This is also an opportunity to invite a friend who may need to be reminded how special they are, or practise their English and be blessed by Christian fellowship.
Children are also welcome with their parents or carers.
The morning will be at no cost but if anyone would like to bring cake or biscuits that would be greatly appreciated. We also need volunteers to help setup, serve tea and coffee or make our guests feel welcome.
To find out more about the event or helping, please contact Shani (0447 589 727 or shani_nel@yahoo.co.uk).

Subi Business Leaders Prayer

The last prayer and fellowship luncheon for the year is on Thursday 18 Dec. Join us from 12.30pm onwards in the Church Cafe. Stay for as long or as short as you like, be it for five, ten or forty-five minutes. Coffee, tea and finger food is provided.

Message from June Lee

I would very much like to take the opportunity to thank you all, Staff, Pastors and the Church Family for the loving care and prayers they have made for Al and myself over the past many months. It is with humble appreciation to you all and praise to our Heavenly Father for the strength, peace and comfort I have received in caring for Al and after he went to be with his Lord.
I pray that each and everyone will have a blessed Christmas and that the Lord will go before us in all we plan and do in 2015. God bless you.
