Worship Night
Did you go to the worship night last week? It was described as "an absolutely tremendous time of worship and praise." It has been a great initiative from Josh T to reach out to other churches in our community to create space to gather and worship together. We get to stand side by side with our brothers and sisters in Christ in both worship and unity. We all play our part in seeing the good news of the Gospel shared in Franklin. If you missed out this time, there will be another Community Worship Night coming up, stay tuned for details. 

eCamp
eCamp is a camp run at Easter for Intermediates. It is run for Churches to bring their Intermediates to, to hear the good news of Jesus! And have some fun along the way. Part of my role is to lead this camp as eCamp Director. With 16 days to Easter weekend we are almost fully prepared to host 1000+ people at Finlay Park Camp on Lake Karapiro. Why do I share this with you? I would love our church to pray. There is so much power when people unite together and pray. Please will you pray with me?

Pray for

  1. Me and my family. There is a large weight of responsibility on me and I would love the support of our church to wrap us in prayer. For Wendy as she supports me and picks up extra things needed to keep our house running. Pray for our kids that they would know and understand the true Easter story and love their Easter experience.
  2. For the committee I lead. Pray for unity. Pray for eyes to see what God is doing. Pray for health and work load as we approach the last few days before camp, and as we serve over the weekend. Pray for a real sense of joy as we partner with God to see young people know Jesus.
  3. For all of the campers who are coming to eCamp. Pray that they may encounter Jesus in a real way. Pray for safety as they have a blast at camp. Pray for positive connections with their leaders, peers, and churches. Pray that they will respond to the call of Jesus and that their lives may be changed as they respond to Him.

Thank you for reading our Connection Corner. We hope this communication will help to connect us together as a congregation.
