We've got some great news of answered prayer to share!
Since we first laid eyes on our Ministry Hub at 176 Tory Street we have been praying for a good relationship to develop with Mount Cook School which is immediately next door. It appears that God has been answering that prayer!
Recently we've been in discussions with the new school principal about using their excellent hall as a new home Night Church. For most of this year Night Church has been at max capacity and is long overdue a new venue if we are going to continue to welcome more people into our church whanau.
This week we reached an agreement with the school to use their hall for Night Church! Praise God!
This will double the capacity as well as having much nicer kitchen and bathroom facilities. It's proximity to the Ministry Hub also means we're not going to lose people in the move to next door.
We're planning the first Night Church to be in Mt Cook School Hall on Sunday 27th November at 6pm. In addition to this we have also penciled in Christmas Eve and Christmas Day services in the school hall with the kids programme on Christmas Day able to run in the Ministry Hub next door.
There is still plenty to work through (like convincing the school to get more than 30 chairs!) and final confirmation to be signed off but we're thankful and excited for this answer to prayer and chance welcome more people into Night Church to hear the great news about Jesus.
Grace & peace,
Andrew
