Ash Wednesday
Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent (This Wednesday 22nd.) Traditionally in the church, Ash Wednesday has been a day of reflection and confession as it begins the time before Easter when we remember Jesus drawing closer to his own death on the cross. On Ash Wednesday, at 10am., I will hold a meditative service with communion for anyone who would like to come along. Again, anyone can come along and is welcome! If you have any questions about Ash Wednesday or Lent please feel free to speak with me.

Welcome to Gungahlin Uniting Church for the year ahead!
(a few words from the Minister – Rev. Mark)

Welcome to everyone who is with us today. If you are new, or have been a part of this congregation for longer, a warm welcome to you all. At Gungahlin Uniting we seek to be inclusive of all people and this is reflected in the diversity of the congregation. We are made up of many people of all ages, backgrounds, different languages, nationalities and theology. Part of the richness of this congregation is welcoming each other, talking to one another, and finding out where people have come from to be here at this time in their life!

Because of our diversity and the task we have of being church in creative and relevant ways, each Sunday at Gungahlin Uniting is slightly different.
