Announcements

  1. A warm welcome to everyone who joined us this morning. We are delighted to see you all. 

  2. Bible and politics — TNT is under way for adults (week 4 of 5). We are digging into the Bible to learn how, as God's people, we can navigate some key political issues of our day. Let's come and learn together.

  3. Worship Night | 13 November | 7:30–9:30pm | Main Hall — Come and join us for a night of worship and prayer on 13 November from 7:30 to 9:30pm at our church main hall. Together, we’ll fix our eyes on Jesus, remember who God is, and find rest in Him — trusting that He will lead us as we step into whatever comes next.
    We are also looking for volunteers to help with different roles, including ushers, someone to prepare snacks, sound, and slides. If you’re interested in serving in any of these areas, please contact Pastor Herman.


Giving

Let us remember the joy of giving and the blessings it brings to both the giver and the receiver. Tithe offering is a duty of all Christians. By giving, we honour God and fulfill His work through our church. May God bless the offering we willingly give. For more details on how you can give, please visit our church website: https://holywordchurch.org.nz/en/giving.


Prayer Items for this Week

  • Pray, as Paul did, that the Father would strengthen us with power through his Spirit in our inner being, so that Christ may make his home in our hearts through faith.

  • Pray that we would move from knowing about God's love to experiencing it, and learn to put our weight on it when life presses in.

  • Pray that, together with all the Lord's people, we would grasp how wide and long and high and deep the love of Christ is, and that our church would live out "together in love" as people rooted in His love first.
