It is understandably an uncertain and anxious time in our world today with the spread of Covid-19. How bad will this situation get? How far will it spread?
The reality is, we don't know. We are doing the best we can for the safety of our community and the wider community of Australia, which means there will likely be changes to our Sunday gatherings. But understand whatever happens, we must hold fast to the Lord. This is the time for the Church to stand up.
The Church is not a place but the people. So as a people let us stand up and instead of spreading panic, let's spread pre-caution.
Instead of spreading the cough, let's spread Christ.
Instead of spreading harm, let's spread hope.
Let's remember to serve and look out for the elderly and vulnerable at this time. Please look to our social media posts and website to keep you updated on any changes.
