Sunday

AM: When Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey people honored Him as their King. And still today we say and we sing that we aught to honor Jesus. But why? What makes him so worthy of the honor of our lives? This Sunday we will explore Psalm 24, a Psalm that looks forward to the coming of Jesus and describes why he is so deserving of the praise of our lives. Read ahead.

PM: "What to do when you doubt" - Just one week out from Easter and who is Jesus, really? What happens when we doubt? When there's nagging doubts about who Jesus is or what he came to do? Ignore them? Deny them? Feed them? Come Sunday night and find out...

Mid Youth Tonight (Friday)

What's on? Games Night.

Prepare to get messy!

See you at the church from 7:00pm - 9:30pm

Cyclone Larry Car Wash

Who could not be moved by what we have witnessed after Cyclone Larry tore through the Innisfail district.  Time to grab those chamois.  It's too far to go to swing a hammer or carry water from the well, but here's an opportunity to do what we can.

Time & date:        8am - 2pm on Saturday 29th April

Venue:                   Redland Christian Reformed Church

What to bring:    Materials supplied, come with a smile and team spirit.

Once again we will run three shifts washing cars :  8-10, 10-12 & 12-2.  We would like to have about 10 people per shift.  Please contact Damien or Helen Watson on 3821 5181 or e-mail damienwatson@optusnet.com.au .  Bring your kids.  At the last car wash it was great to see parents and kids working together.  Those that weren't washing were doing the 'wobble board' thing advertising at the front of the church

We are also looking for a couple of people per shift to give our customers a friendly welcome and offer them a chair & cuppa while they wait.  This is an important part of the day - a great opportunity to build relationships with people in the community.

We told you last week the team would fill fast – 9 of the 11 places in the RCRC side have been taken! That means you who was thinking about emailing josh@royalfoods.com.au and signing up (or finding out more) had better get a wriggle on. And the square leg umpire position is also still available. Even you would only like to umpire for 1 or 2 weeks, we’d love to hear from you!

If you have said you are in, this Saturday at 2:30pm we are going down to the nets to get in a bit of practise and to meet the team. Mary Pleasant Drive in Birkdale (Just past the shopping centre) on the Birkdale primary school oval there. Bring whatever gear you have as well as any cricket balls you have lying around.

Hopefully the rest of the Church has read on to this part were we’re asking for some prayer support. Here are some ideas:

  • Those in the team who don’t know the Lord à this is the big one!
  • Relationships between all of us involved
  • Protection from injuries

Prayer

  • Peter Barker and Shelley Woods, who will be married tomorrow. Pray for a rich blessing in their lives and in their home

  • Cor Dekker who continues daily radiation treatment – pray for strength, endurance, and the assurance of the Lord’s faithfulness
  • Safe arrival of Abbey Louise Harrison to Leroy and Leeanne last week
  • Stewart and Cheryl Harrison, with Katelyn and Ethan, moving back to Canada this coming week: may the Lord go with you, friends
