Community Prayer & Listening Walk
A group of us have been walking around the neighbourhood. It's interesting seeing what you miss when you're driving. Being in tune prayerfully and being present in our God-chosen community is important.
What’s going on in our surrounding community? Let’s go for a walk and see, listening to the community, God and praying on the way! We are set to get back out walking, the first Wednesday of each month at 10.30am!!!!
Next walk September 7 @10.30am.
Rebuild News in Brief
STAGE 1 WAS ALMOST COMPLETE
Even more rot has been found in the church. Unfortunately, some of this rot is in important structural places. In some ways, it's good to find it now and deal with it. Rot of this nature does not happen overnight. Sadly, this means more time and more money.
Fundraising Appears to Be Less On Track Than Previously Thought
Things were looking great but all the extra work/ economic situation is pushing up expenses. It is being loosely calculated that we need to raise another $700, 000ish. The economic situation is making some of the typical avenues a little more problematic. We have trust that the money will come in. If God desires this rebuild to happen, then it will.
Please add fundraising for St Stephens into your prayers!!
Start getting excited because St Stephen's 2.0 will be a thing of beauty and fit for purpose!
