Please find below a summary of our recent Session meeting for August 2018. Thank you for your prayers as our leaders gather to shepherd Jesus’ church here in Buderim.

General

  1. Clint Lombard led a devotion from various verses in 1 Peter highlighting the power of authentic Christian living to speak powerfully to our world
  2. We prayed around the table for pastoral needs in the church family and praised the Lord for prayers we have seen him answer

Decisions and Discussions

  2. The deacons reported a very encouraging working bee on Saturday 25 Aug 2018, with some of the highest attendance in recent times
  3. An increase in the number of children at our 9.30am Sunday School was noted
  4. Service attendance currently averages 69 for the 7.45am service, 74 for the 9.30am service and 24 for Grow@Grace on Sunday evenings.
  5. The Regis Lakeside service didn’t take place this month due to the heavier workload on Clint during John’s absence, but is planned to resume next month.
