Worship & Growing Faith

In October, our Messages of Hope programs feature finding peace through depression and anxiety. With more and more young people experiencing mental health issues associated with the pressures of life, how can we best support them?

During the Season of Prayer, all are encouraged to participate in actively praying for the church. How do you pray? Do you struggle to find the right words or seek to hear God in your prayers?

Are you looking for ways to encourage others to get involved in prayer? Looking for ideas on how to pray? Or ways to teach prayer to children? The Grow Ministries GIFT Prayer resource offers resources to help us learn about the importance of prayer in our Christian lives.

Each year, the Local Mission department of the LCANZ facilitates a Season of Prayer, inviting and calling on congregations of the LCANZ to pray. This year, the Season of Prayer is scheduled for 10 to 24 September 2023, and the theme is ‘Lord, renew your church’.

The Messages of Hope featured in August include the topics of confidence, contentment, dementia, coping with changing and letting go of control. 

Offered by Local Mission, a Gospel Fluency Workshop is designed to help prepare and equip you and give you a vocabulary, context, and some actual practice in sharing the good news in words and actions with those around you.
