In Worship Today Our Bible Readings for our Worship Services are from the Good News Translation Bible and are as follow:
For the 9am worship service, they are Psalm 23 and Ephesians 4:1 – 6 . The gospel reading is Luke 15:1 – 7 .
For the 10.30am worship service, the bible readings are the same as the 3 readings from the 9am worship service, and are read in various languages with English translations on-screen.
The theme and message for both worship services is “We are family, we are one” and is based on Ephesians 4:1-6.
