3 June 2018 church newsletter

Hope you appreciate this weeks newsletter on the link.  The sun is trying to peek through after a very windy and wet Saturday.  We were very blessed and entertained last Sunday at the concert to raise funds to support the Read Family, who’s triplets have Muscular Dystrophy.  We raised over $1300 towards the fund to assist this family with modifying their home to support these beautiful children who are all in wheel chairs. Congratulations to the Bonny Hills Community Church music team and to the lovely Faye Owen  for a great afternoon of very entertaining music.

Rev Mark D Roberts writes on his site found at: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/markdroberts/

For Christians, Pentecost is a holiday on which we commemorate the coming of the Holy Spirit on the early followers of Jesus. Before the events of the first Pentecost, which came a few weeks after Jesus’ death and resurrection, there were followers of Jesus, but no movement that could be meaningfully called “the church.” Thus, from an historical point of view, Pentecost is the day on which the church was started. This is also true from a spiritual perspective, since the Spirit brings the church into existence and enlivens it. Thus Pentecost is the church’s birthday.
