HSM - Evening for Parents...

Tomorrow night (Thursday, 5th) is our Parents' Night for HSM. It's a chance for parents of HSM'ers to come and find out some more about our program, meet some leaders, and share some supper.

If you are planning to come along, could you please let me know ASAP. Details below...

Time: 7:30 - 9:00pm
@ Church.

Contact: Dan Kroon. dan@redlandscrc.org.au Ph: 0438 332 695.

Sunday

9am: The end of all prayer: Rev 21. They day is coming when prayer will be 24/7. Every longing we have for life, for hope and for justice is a prayer than yearns for fulfilment. The day will come. And it will come when Jesus comes. Are you praying for that? And until the day, are you living your prayer in the here and now?

5pm: Post Amos Sermon. Israel's role as a ‘light to the nations' and how their disobedience to God meant that they were actually a stumbling block to the people, and how now in Christ, the church is again called to be a light to the nations and take a gospel with us wherever we go and the difference that makes in people's lives.

 "I have a friend who struggles with..."

This July we are starting a series on the questions that you (or your friends) have about faith, the Bible and what it means to be a follower of Jesus. Soon we will put out topics for you to vote on, but before then we need your input.

So what are the questions you have? What would you love to hear a sermon about, but never do? This is your opportunity to have input into what we preach.

Email your suggestions to clinton@redlandscrc.org.au or txt 0424 477 487

This is the last week for suggestions, so get in quick!!!
