In addition to being a good neighbor, sharing Christ with your family and friends and eating together regularly, here are some of the ways you can get involved in Church Life in some of our regular gatherings and ministries.
Neighbourhood Group
|
A Neighbourhood Group is a group of people, living with intentional proximity, and committed to living out the BELLS missional rhythm of life together. A Neighbourhood Group is not primarily a small group or Bible Study, but a group of missionaries in a particular place sent to be Good News to their neighbours. In conjunction with Boort Baptist Church, we are seeking to plant Neighbourhood Groups around our region.

Sunday SchoolSunday School is run on a Sunday morning at Granite Church, Granite Flat, during the school term. Sunday School is for kindergarten to primary aged kids and happens during our 10.30am service. Stories, crafts, singing and games will teach your kids in fun and relevant ways about our loving Heavenly Father and how, because of Jesus, they too can have a personal relationship with the God who created them!!
MOPS in DonaldMOPS or Mother's of Preschooler's is a mother's group and a children's playgroup all rolled into one. The kids are looked after while the Mum's get to chat, learn some skills for parenting, hear other parent's stories or just be pampered because they deserve it. MOPS runs for about 2 hrs. MOPS in Donald runs on Friday, fortnightly, during school term. It is held at the Donald Kinder Centre, in Houston Street.

'We Care' Compassion Ministry
The 'We Care' ministry is a ministry to our local community both inside and outside the Church. The 'We Care' ministry provides meals, fresh or frozen, and grocery hampers to people in need. It may be because of financial hardship, or for someone who needs a hand with meals after surgery or a new baby or for any other reason. Just an opportunity to say, "We Care."
This ministry also provides small gifts for people to help them through hardship, grief or after some major life event or transition. Just a small something to say our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Contact the Deacons or the Church for more details.
