Welcome to Gungahlin Uniting Church
Today in the life of the church throughout the world is Palm Sunday. Palm Sunday is the Sunday before Easter where we recall the account of Jesus entering Jerusalem for the last time before his death on the cross. Welcome as we share in this time of worship together. At Gungahlin Uniting we usually have morning tea together in the middle of worship. Following morning tea there is Oasis for primary school aged children in the courtyard rooms at the end of the passage. Billabong youth all meet with their mentors. There is also an opportunity to reflect upon the Gospel for today, along with song and prayer, back in the main worship space.

Spring Getaway
Would you be interested in helping organise a Spring Getaway? 18 months ago we had a getaway in early November at Fitzroy Falls which was both relaxing and encouraging. Our getaways are designed for all ages, to be relaxing, creative, and fun. If you would be interested in helping organise, just pop your name on the sheet in the foyer.

Welcome to Gungahlin Uniting Church
Today in worship we all gather as one. Young and old, people from all nations, people of different understandings, long-time members and newcomers, we all gather to worship God. In worship today we receive communion and everyone is invited to come forward to share in the bread and wine. Following worship there is morning tea and a light BBQ lunch to which you are all invited.

A Lenten evening with meal and meaning
This Lent you are invited to come along for a shared evening meal and a time of reflection and worship around the theme: “meeting Christ on the road…” This will be an evening of food, reflective conversation and worship and of course all ages are welcome. Sunday 17th. March, 5-8pm. You are invited to bring a plate of food either from your own culture, or reflecting Middle Eastern food (dips, breads, lamb, vine leaves)… but you do not have to bring food to come along… there will always be plenty.

Welcome to Gungahlin Uniting Church
Everyone is welcome as we gather as a Christian Community to worship God. Our Congregation is made up of many different people from diverse backgrounds, languages, traditions and theology and together we gather as one. At Gungahlin Uniting we usually have morning tea in the middle of worship. This week in the first half our Minister, Mark, will meet with the youth (Billabong year 6+) in the courtyard rooms. After morning tea we all meet back in the worship space to reflect on God’s word for our lives.

Thankyou…
Thank you to everyone who has supported our ministry and life as a congregation over the past month.
Thank you to the Church Council who have been working on matters of administration and finance.
Thank you to all who helped organise, prepare and welcome the wider community as we celebrated Chris Fernando’s life.
Thank you to those who led worship and took part in worship while I was on holidays.

In all of this we express our faith in Christian community and in our part in the wider community in which we live.
