In August this year Rev. Steve Coster and Rev. Margaret Middleton conducted a consultation both on the life and witness of the congregation and the vitality of Rev. Mark Faulkner’s call to Gungahlin.  Their reports are available in the foyer if you don’t already have them.  Church Council will have a special meeting this Thursday to discuss the reports.  The congregation is then invited to an Open Church Council Meeting at 7.45pm on Thursday 24^th September to discuss the reports.  If you have any questions or comments please speak with Chris Dodd (Chairperson).

You are invited to meet with Mark Faulkner and Margaret Reeson
7.30 pm on Thursday 10 September at GUCC

Saturday 5th September 2-4pm
Barrows, shovels and gloves would help, but there are some available already on site. Please come along and help! [Read more…]

Worship this Sunday morning – 9.30am!

This Sunday we gather for worship at 9.30am. and celebrate the Baptism of Sia Kwon, daughter of Yoo-Mi and Ken.  We will also celebrate communion; the sharing of the bread and wine. All are welcome to receive.  Following worship we share in morning tea and our BBQ lunch.  A great opportunity to gather and celebrate community, life and God’s love.
