Today Peter preached on the Sheep and the Goats.  But there was a fresh insight.  We have a video of the sermon here.

This Sunday we welcome the Revd Glen Popata a new member of the parish.  Glen is a Priest in Tikanga Maori and has recently taken up an appointment as a Naval Chaplain.  Today he preaches on the Parable of the Talents.

It was good to welcome Zoe by baptism.  Peter Lloyd preached on the two things parents need to convey to their children as they raise them in the faith.
Service and song words are in the document below.

If the words of the liturgy and songs are wanted they are in the order of service below.

It was a good day!  Bishop Ross came on a pastoral visit as arranged months ago, it was the first day back at Level 1, he dedicated the Memorial Wall and the Sunday School put on a "Mission Munch" lunch afterwards in support of the Auckland City Mission!

The video of the service is below.

Note on songs
Since we were at Level 2, there was no singing but we used videos for the Praise time, the Offertory and the Final song.  We encourage you to step through all 7 videos parts which make up the service (4 of our recordings around 3 songs) for a fuller worship experience.  The songs are also listed separately below.

The sermon text is here.

Video songs:

Praise time at : "I lift my hands" - Chris Tomlin
Offertory at : "Is He worthy?" - Andrew Peterson
Final song at : "Made me Glad" - Miriam Webster

As of today, services have resumed at church.  However, we know that some were not be able to attend and so a short video service is posted here. 

The video is abridged to cut out the songs and the communion.  We were advised not to sing under Level 2, but we listened to three hymns.  They follow in the play list.  I have also put 'cards' in the top right of the video at the point when the hymns fit in.  If you click on the card it pauses the video and lets you open the hymn video in a new window.  After the hymn, you can close that window and continue with the service.

We have been following the #UNITE714 global prayer movement through the Pandemic.  In this event, leaders of some major churches join online to pray as we head into Pentecost Sunday....
