Pastor's para: Jason writes

I am happy to share two encouraging things that have happened this week regarding our Monthly Movie Night which was held on Friday and our Workplace Blessings.

I was talking to a friend who works as a surgical nurse at St George’s Hospital on Monday and she asked me if it was our church who hosts the Monthly Movie Nights. She had seen a flyer on the staff room notice board and thought it would have been a good movie to go along to. It is great to see that we as a church are really getting on board with bringing our church lives into our work lives and that it’s being noticed.

Secondly, last week I was delivered a Workplace Blessing to the Hargest Crescent Kindergarten. J had put together a wonderful gift basket for them, with a book for the children and chocolates for the staff. R, the Kindergarten director, was very thankful and we received an amazing “Thank you” card from some of the children this week. Have a look for it in the foyer.

Last week we dropped flyers for the Monthly Movie Night into them to give to parents and I received a phone call on Thursday from a parent who was after more information, and asking if she could invite other friends and their families also.

So a big thank you to everyone who has taken the time to be involved with the Workplace Blessings, and the Monthly Movie Nights, and who support L and her team as they take seriously this mission we at Opawa Baptist have been given to “reflect Jesus’ love …in our communities and beyond.”
