It's been another crazy week here at The Meeting House!It began with a capacity crowd to farewell to Brenton (Captain) as he leaves us to get maried this weekend, and then moves on to a new appointment in the new year.
It got stranger when over 120 pre-schoolers and their carers came together for the mainly music christmam program with a difference. As the children sang and danced, they heard the story of Christmas through the eyes of a kiwi and a mouse.
This was followed by the weekly community meal: 59 people heard again the message of Emmanuel, and shared together around their tables. This eclectic group continues to surprise and delight us as we look to meet the needs of the marginalised in our community.
Wednesday and following a good attendance at the Drop-In centre, our little experiment: MAKAttack! (a Kids Club) continues to grow with over 30 children meeting to create chaos and hear the real story of Christmas.
The Meeting House is alive and well. In any given week we become home for between 275 and 300 people - many of whom are the displaced and unwanted of our community. If you want to see a church that is committed to it's purpose of Introducing people to Jesus, Meeting Needs and Making a Difference - then, check us out or come and be part of the transformation that is occuring here.
