Introduction to St Pauls
++++++++++++++
Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near; repent, and believe in the good news." And he said to some fishermen, “Follow me... And immediately they left their nets and followed him.”
We too are called out of the everyday, into the abundance of eternal life with the Divine, and so to shape tomorrow.
“Christ has no body now on earth but ours”

Blessing for Unity
May God, the one from whom on different paths
All of us have come,
To whom on different paths All of us are going,
Make strong in our hearts what unites us.
May God build bridges across all that divides us;
May God make us, united, rejoice in our diversity.

Community Precinct
Do you know we use our Community Hall, kitchen and other facilities for our celebrations and weekly and monthlyactivities, and that many other groups in our community use it as well?
Our commitment to community is given a ‘real’ expression in practical terms through continuing to maintain a precinct that welcomes all, especially those service groups that could not otherwise operate.
Community Precinct and the Hall
On behalf of the St Paul’s Council and community, we wish to express our sincere appreciation for the financial contribution from Lotterywest for the conservation work to our heritage listed community hall. Without this financial support from Lotterywest, we would not have had the capacity to undertake the required conservation work to ensure our facility remains a meeting place for so many different community groups.
St Paul’s is committed to growing community & sharing our facilities with the wider community and greatly appreciates the partnership with Lotterywest to assist us to continue to serve the community

Collect
The Collect (APBA p. 485)
God of all times and places,
In Jesus Christ, who was lifted from the cross,
you opened for us the path to eternal life:
grant that we, being born again of water and the Spirit,
may joyfully serve you in newness of life
and faithfully walk in your holy ways;
through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit
one God, now and for ever
Amen
God of everlasting Love
We acknowledge the covenant,
the love that holds us forever in the Divine
Like Abraham, we are named in the light of Blessing
In Christ, our suffering is called into Glory
And as we turn toward Divine things so we see in each other
That our life is found when we make manifest your Love. Amen
Why come to church?
There are many and varied reasons that bring us here Sunday by Sunday: our personal journey and our innate desire for ‘community’ being just two. We also enter into a ‘conversation’ that takes us beyond the everyday, a dialogue with and between ourselves and our calling into full humanity. And we come to encounter the Divine as we consume the sacraments, a process that mirrors our desire to be consumed by love’s Divine fire.
