Today, Holy Trinity will host a 45 minute meditative event named ‘Solace’.  This will be an opportunity for silent meditation, peaceful piano music, a chance to light a candle and sit quietly.  Begins at 12 noon ‘sharp’.

*** PARISH MEETING AFTER CHURCH NEXT SUNDAY ***

Next Sunday at 11.30am, Archdeacon Heather Patacca will visit Holy Trinity to consult with our community to look at what we feel are our strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and the attributes and qualities we would value in a new priest.                                                   Please come and be part of this conversation!

STUDY GUIDE ON FORGIVENESS

At the conclusion of this week’s Service Booklet, is Session 6 of Bishop Philip’s Study Guide on Forgiveness.

“In this session we will reflect on Jesus’ words from the cross, in Luke’s gospel: “Father , forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing”.  From the medieval Mystic Julian of Norwich, to the Solomon Islands Truth and Reconciliation Commission,  Jesus’ Passion has inspired and enabled forgiveness, against the odds.”

QUALITY USED GOODS AND VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR THE OP SHOP !

The Op Shop is needing to re-stock after the fire last December.  Good quality clothes and bric-a-brac are required to fill the hangers and shelves!  At this stage there is no need for books but notice will be given if /when this changes.

Also, new Op-Shop volunteers are always needed and welcome.  😊
