Introduction
The readings this morning come from the lectionary, a series of readings that cover much of the Bible over a five year period.
Non-Christian perceptions of Christianity often include what people can and can’t do. I’ve heard people say, ‘I couldn’t stand being a Christian, you’ve got to give up things.’ The media often cast Christianity negatively – ‘it’s about doing this or that, keeping rules.’ In other words, they see Christianity in terms of law – having to keep laws, and laws cramping our style, or telling us to do things we don’t want to, and the things we want to do we can’t.

We are a community on a journey. We’ve grown from a small faith community planted in Ngunnawal in the early years of Gungahlin’s development to a thriving intergenerational and multicultural community located near the Gungahlin town centre.
Gungahlin Uniting Church is an open and inclusive community. You are welcome to join us and participate in the life of our community as we experience life, God and seek to follow the way of Christ.

Worship is for all ages, (0 to 93!) and seeks to be meaningful in different ways for us all.
In Jesus Christ we see how he drew near to each and all and so we hope our worship expresses this nearness too.
We worship at the Gungahlin Uniting Church & Community Centre.
