Can you help?
Please prayerfully consider how you may help with any of these:

We desperately need 1 adult who can disciple our ‘tweens’ on a Sunday morning. This is our High Tide group which caters for kids in Yrs 6-8. Currently we have 25 kids in this age group with only 1 female adult & a teenager to lead them. We are praying for someone who loves to disciple younger people and has a heart for them. Is this you? PLEASE PRAYERFULLY CONSIDER THIS MINISTRY OPPORTUNITY! (Weekly or fortnightly commitment).
We need 1 parent to prepare River Kids morning tea once a month with Katharine Montoya on Week 4. She would love someone to help her!! (monthly commitment)
Would you like to teach a Scripture class this year? Vacancy in Year 5 at Peakhurst South school each Wednesday 2:20-2:50pm. (weekly commitment)
Could you be a Scripture helper for a large Kinder class? Emma Scipione teaches this class Wednesday 12:30-1:00pm at Peakhurst West but would love someone to sit in and help her keep kids on track as she teaches. (Weekly commitment)

Please speak to Lara if you can help with any of these roles. Thank you. Please don’t hesitate to ring or email me with any concerns, questions or ‘God moments’ you have with your children. We love hearing about what God is doing in the children’s lives!
