TEAR Australia: Becoming people of hope today

Common Grace: Jesus says ‘I am’

Join with the Common Grace community in reflecting on the seven ‘I Am’ statements from the Gospel of John. Led by a range of interesting bible teachers, you’ll hear from the diversity of the church about what we have in common – the Lord Jesus. Each week from February 26th you’ll receive a video, daily bible readings and a reflection to stimulate your faith in Jesus as we head to Easter.

Over five short videos, Archbishop Justin explores different ways of praying. From asking for things and giving thanks, to expressing deep sadness and anger, Exploring Prayer helps you begin – or develop – your conversation with God.

Prayer in a time of bushfire

Posted on by

Bishop Kate Prowd has called parishes in the Oodthenong Episcopate to pray for all those who have been affected by this summer’s fires, on Sunday 2 February at 5pm. This service is one of many taking place at the same time, as we join in prayer for comfort, healing and renewal.
Everyone is welcome.
