SUNDAY SERVICES – From July 5th
Here is a video update from Phil, giving you an overview of ‘Westcity Coming Home from July 5th’.
• Sunday Service at Nanson Street 10am, from July 5th onwards. Register here to attend July 5 and July 12, as soon as possible. Limited spaces.
We look forward to meeting together and welcoming our local community, new comers, young families and those not already connected within our church community. Children will not attend the service in the chapel but go straight into their program in the rear hall. On arrival, please sign your children in (and you will also need to sign them out at the end of the service). Please arrive at 9.50am . The service starts with worship at 9.55am, as we will be filming the service for those watching online.
• Sunday Homes – this is for those already connected with in the Westcity community, to help create extra space at Nanson St. We are asking our church leaders and members to consider hosting a Sunday morning at their home by inviting friends and home church members to join them. At this time, it is rather informal but the morning will include watching the live-stream service, from 10.15am as a group followed by conversation and community. We would ask that leaders keep a list of those attending in the event that we are asked to provide details.
There is no need to register for a Sunday Home at this time as Home leaders will be managing their own invites and arrangements. If you are keen to attend a Sunday Home and haven’t already received an invite (or are able to host), please contact us.
• Livestream Sundays to continue from 10.15am. We are so happy to be able to continue to connect and care for our online community locally and around the world, in this way.
Our weekly online resources will also continue for you, throughout the week, such as Podcasts, Home Study Notes, Pastoral Notes, Weekly Updates, Church Emails, FaceBook and other initiatives.
