Everyone gets to play ⎮ As we offer God what is in our hands, He does incredible things!

Come along and hear Katy preach, and be part of these early days of us, the Sawrey family, finding our feet, a home for us as a family to live in and a spiritual home to belong to, here at Shore Vineyard.
This  Sunday Katy will be bringing the next instalment in ourAll Things Newseries, as she speaks from Exodus 4, where we see God invite Moses to use what is in his hands.
This will be a great and timely message as we host our Volunteers Celebration Lunch after church on Sunday. All welcome, volunteers and potential volunteers, as we say thanks to the amazing people who do indeed offer God all that is in their hands, and make Shore Vineyard what it is.
So join us this Sunday 8.45 for our Chapel Service led by Julianne de Wet,and/or 10amfor worship with Rob Ashcroft and band and Katy's message.
Seek will watch the second episode of  Youth Alpha, led by Azzy Hodgson, while children's pastor Fraser Craig continues to bring  the creation story alive with our wonderful pre-schoolers and primary school kids.
Easter Campis also looming (early bird deadline is this Sunday, February 15) and with it comes our annual fundraising to pay for the bus and other necessities as well as sponsoring some ticket costs for those who otherwise would struggle to attend.
Our target its $5000, and we're featuring acar wash and bake saleon Sunday, February 22, and a hire-a-youth auction on Sunday, March 1. Always a fun time! Or you can just sponsor a young person outright - $265.
Another date to note is our annual ladies high tea, organised by the fabulous Jody Alder, raising money for Dignity Freedom Network (DFN) on Saturday, February 28.
Details of all these events are on our What's On page.
Looking a little further ahead, plans are starting to take shape for our two big Sundays - March 8, the farewell service for Vic & Fran; and March 22, the commissioning service for Katy and I.
We're inviting those who would like to offer farewell messages for Vic & Fran and a welcome messages for us Sawreys to do a short video to mark the occasion.
If you're sending such messages, please make them landscape with a natural background, featuring most of the body rather than a close-up selfie and leaving recording space before and after talking to help with editing. Some messages will be collated to play in the services; all will be treasured. Here's a Dropbox link for the Vic and Franfarewell messages and another for the Paul and Katywelcome messages. 
Don't forget, too, that Camp Out is sandwiched between those two Sundays - the weekend of March 13 to 15. Please book soon through booking.com.
Bless you, hope to see you Sunday!

Paul Sawrey, soon Senior Pastor
