St. John’s Anglican Church is holding in-person services, many of which are livestreamed over Facebook as well.

You no longer need to pre-register to attend services; however, NSW regulations require that you check in (using the QR Code if possible, or directly with a sidesperson) when you arrive. 

Services for the Third Sunday after Easter, 25 April 2021, are as follows. The Act of Remembrance will be held immediately after both services.

• 8:00am Holy Communion, BCP, will be in-person only.
  • Order of Service BCP
• 9:30am Holy Communion, will be both in-person and livestreamed.
  • Order of Service
• Act of Remembrance
  • ANZAC Day Act of Remembrance

A mid-week Holy Communion service (Book of Common Prayer) is held on Thursdays at 10:00am. You do not need to pre-register to attend this service; NSW regulations do require that you check in when you arrive. 

PARISH PRAYER
written by our former Rector, Father Bill Weston

God our Father, send your Holy Spirit upon the people of this parish.  Give us a greater love for all.  Make us more compassionate for the sick, the lonely and all in need, more zealous in the inspiration of the young, more concerned about the wider mission of the Church and more generous in our giving of service and money.  Help each one of us to know what we ought to do and give us strength and courage faithfully to do it, through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen
