Welcome to Gungahlin Uniting. Today we all remain in worship together as we share in communion and reflect on the word of God in creative ways. Everyone who is with us today is welcome to receive the bread and wine as an expression of your faith in Jesus Christ.

Bible Studies and Conversations at GUC on the Gospel of Luke.
Starting next Sunday evening at 5pm you are invited to come along to Bible Conversations on the Gospel of Luke. Luke is the Gospel that is the focus of our Advent readings and most of our reading throughout 2013 so this is a great opportunity for study, conversation and learning about this book.

Today at Gungahlin Uniting Church
Welcome to everyone who is with us today as we come together to worship God. Everyone is welcome as we seek to be an expression of the breadth of God’s love for all humanity. At Gungahlin Uniting we usually share morning tea in the middle of worship. After this in the worship space, there is an activity for the Oasis group, (Primary aged), and a message from Proverbs and the Gospel of Mark.

Angel Tree Helper
For the past three Christmas periods, Gungahlin Uniting Church has been involved with Angel Tree, which organises a gift to be bought for a child of a prison inmate. The prison inmate indicates what they would like to give to their children, we buy it on their behalf and then we deliver it to the family in the week before Christmas. Often it is a grandmother or a single mother caring for the children, so last year we also organised a small gift of a Christmas cake and some soaps for them too.

Jenelle Martin who organised Angel Tree last year for our congregation is looking for a helper. This person would help wrap the gifts and deliver them. If you would be willing to help please speak with Jenelle (62554006).
