Spirit Empowered Evangelism
For those who missed the Absaloms weekend, or want a refresher, Claire is holding a Spirit-Empowered Evangelism session on Sunday May 3, 3.30-5pm. This will cover the content that was shared at the conference, no sign up required, just head along!
Ōpāwaho River Clean Up
This is a community-wide event on Saturday May 9 — the aim is to clean up rubbish from the margins of these waterways, essentially giving creation the gift of a clean river for Mother's Day! For the ninth year SWBC has committed to arranging the clean-up for two sections of the Ōpāwaho Heathcote River, and we need some help.
Mother’s Day
This Sunday is Mother's Day, and to celebrate The Living Room will be open for you to bring mum and shout her a free hot drink!
Global Prayer Night
Join us for a time of prayer dedicated for our people overseas, as well as the places they live. Come and pray together.
Regenesis Planting Day
After last year’s incredible effort, Regenesis planting day is back. Each plant we put in the ground helps strengthen the valley, improving soil stability, restoring habitat, and bringing back native biodiversity. It all adds up and we’d love you to be part of it. The more hands, the bigger the impact!
Join us on Saturday May 16 at the Cashmere Rd planting site (opposite Bushland Pl), two sessions available to sign up for — 9am-12pm and 1-4pm. There will be a picnic and sausage sizzle in between — time to relax, connect, and see the difference we’re making together. Come for one session or stay for both. Sign up here.
Hibburt Park Revel and Run Team Relay
For all the keen runners out there, check out the Hibburt Park Revel & Run - 24 Hour Team Relay! This inaugural event is one not to be missed - a chance to band together with family, friends, neighbours or colleagues to complete as many 5.5km laps in 24 hours as you can, all while supporting a great cause! If 24 hours sounds a bit out of your depth, fear not, there's a 6hr and a 12hr option too!
