Welcome to Cavy

Today

10:15—Paul Caldwell leads

We welcome Charlie and Jo Kennedy from Tranzsend Karene Scott speaks on Forgiveness

Charlie and Jo will speak further at a shared lunch. After 10 rainy days out of 12 in Sydney it was great to get back to sunshine and relative warmth. We met up with old Caversham friends and made some interesting connections with past generations at Caversham — even in Sydney! Meanwhile work goes on — Admin Team and Elders’ meetings on Thursday; Selection Committee underway; Divorce Care continuing; Breakfast Church recommenced; Playgroups and Girls’ Brigade starting for term 4 and a lovely wedding to take yesterday. Never a dull moment. Finances until the end of September will be presented at the church meeting on 31 October. And I spoke on Thursday to Andrew Brown, a Carey College student, who will be joining us from 18 November to 10 February. Accommodation arranged; other needs as they come to hand.

Next Sunday

8:45am — Breakfast @ Cavy

10:15 am — Sharon Cook leads Roly Scott speaks on

‘A Samaritan thanking Jesus — how radical is that?’ Luke 17:11-19

Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus ( I Thessalonians 5:18)

Church Meeting We have now rescheduled the recently postponed Church Meeting. The meeting will now be held on Wednesday 31st October in the Church Auditorium and will start at 7pm. Please contact Mathew directly if you have any questions.

Will be held on Sunday 4th November after our morning gathering and a shared potluck lunch. Ebony and Ella are our MCs again this year, so please let them know if

you would like to perform. Anyone of any age is welcome to present an item. We are not looking for perfection just a lot of fun!

Baptist Magazines - It is nearly time for us to order our Baptist magazines for next year and Judith would love to know how many people want to continue to receive it. Thank you to those of you who have informed her you don't want it anymore. It seems that many are not being read and it is a shame to pay for them if that is the case. By the same token, if you don't get it now and would like to, also let Judith know. Thank you so much.
