NE WS Mother & Daughter High Tea
In this is love, not that we loved God but that God loved us. Beloved, since God loved us so much, we also ought to love one another. 1 John 4.10–11 O God, form the minds of your faithful people, that we may love what you command and desire what you promise, so that, amid the many changes of this world, our hearts may there be fixed where true joys are to be found; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

CHURCH COUNCIL Thelma Burnett Stuart Fairbairn Leslie Peterson Christine Pritchard Mary Raycraft Peter Stewart [email protected] Two critical things we can do is remember and pray: Remembering is important because there will be another disaster in the news and recovery always takes time. Remember, for many will forget. Prayer is important too. Not simply saying a prayer once, but regularly, but repeatedly. Prayer is sometimes thought as handing over to God the things that are hard to bear, but more fruitful prayer is seek God’s strength in bearing the burden. Prayer of this sort keeps open the question: “What more can I do?” In the Province we pray for: Parish of Manjimup, Diocese of Bunbury Cathedral Parish of Karratha and Dampier, Diocese of North West Australia In the Anglican Church we pray for: Primate of Australia, Archbishop Philip Freier NEWS 5th Sunday of Easter St Barnabas Op Shop Monday—Saturday 9.00-11.30am (Continued on page 2) www.facebook.com/StBarnabasKalamunda http://kalamunda.perth.anglican.org Sermon podcast www.buzzsprout.com/15443.rss GFS invite you to Mother & Daughter High Tea 3pm Sat 9 May, St Barnabas Hall (see notice board) St Barnabas, Kalamunda - church among the trees NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF PARISHIONERS I commend the following prayer for Nepal produced by the United Bible Societies Prayer for Nepal The mountains and hills may crumble but my love for you will never end (Isaiah 54.10) 11.00am Sun 7th June 2015 Father God, we cry out for Nepal.
