Christmas Services at Subi

Our Christmas Services will be held on Wednesday 24 Dec from 6pm to 7pm, and again on Thursday 25 Dec from 9am to 10pm. Postcard invites will be available on the noticeboard in the foyer. Start praying about who you would like to invite along to a Christmas Service this year, and grab one (or five) postcards this weekend!

On 11 Nov, the Subiaco City Councillors voted unanimously in favour of the project.
On 15 and 16 Nov, the Subi Church Family was polled. We counted the ballots from over 600 people, and 94% of those who shared an opinion encouraged the leadership to keep the project going. 

Building plans are available on our website: http://bit.ly/subirenew. You can still email us any feedback to office@subiacochurch.com. Thank you!
