Support
Meeting for Sunday services is one of the main ways we connect as a Christian community. However, as a Christian community we need to respect the government of our country and abide by the rules put in place to keep us safe and healthy. We understand that not everyone has access to the technology required to participate in online services, or even keep up with the latest changes. In these times we ask you to keep in mind anyone you know who may fall into this category and keep in touch with them. Feel free to direct them to the office if they have any queries or require assistance.
We also have the following resources and structures in place to help support all facets of our Sunday services:
Kids
As the Grain Shed Kids program is on hold while services are restricted, the following resources are available for you to download to get your kids involved each Sunday:
PC Parent Guides (Kinder Kids)
Preschool Place Mats
PC Parent Guides (Foundation – Grade 3)
Foundation – Gr 1 Godtime Weekly devotions
Grades 2-3 Weekly Devotions
PC Parent Guides (Grades 4-6)
Grades 4-6 Godtime Weekly Devotions
Pastoral Care
As always, if you or somebody you know needs pastoral care of any kind, please contact the office.
Office
The Grain Shed office remains open for now and you can call for anything you may need. Please remember to take appropriate precautions if you are feeling unwell and call instead of dropping in.
Giving
You can still give by switching to direct debit, or making deposits via internet banking if you haven’t already done so. Please phone the Grain Shed office on 5032 9449 for further details. For cash offerings, a secure drop-off point is available at the Grain Shed during office hours, Monday to Friday.
Prayer points
It is not easy to make a decision to pause Sunday services at the Grain Shed, but we have the opportunity to do so much for God in these interesting times:
- We can use technology to advance God’s work further afield
- We can focus on setting aside time for God in our week and time at home
- We can worship together as families
- We can spend more time talking to each other about God’s word
- We can spend time with our children learning about God
- We can meet in small groups (family or friends) in our home to study God’s word (invite them for online church and share Sunday roast together) if you are comfortable to do so and if you are observing appropriate precautions
Please pray for La’ Mont as he leads the church teams and congregation during this challenging time. God is asking us to step out of our comfort zone and be a light for Him in the world.
