To Our Church Family from the Chair:
This year St Marks will have been Worshipping at the corner of Condamine and Archibald Sts for 50 years!! There will be a celebration of this milestone – but how will we celebrate and what will we do to recognize this anniversary?
Here is your opportunity – we need an energetic group of volunteers to plan, organize, guide and make this a terrific celebration.
If you wish to be involved from gardening, cleaning buildings, planning, organizing, stuff we haven’t even thought of, please attend the initial meeting after service 30 April 2023 or let the Chair know of your interest!! There’s lots to do – not that we know what it is, YET – and we don’t have long to do it – let’s do this together!!
Synod Delegate:
Are you wishing to volunteer and represent St Marks Dalby at the LCAQD Convention of Synod, 2-4 June 2023? Please contact the Chair with your positive response ASAP.
Dalby Circles of Care:
St Mark’s will be providing “Meals for the Homeless” on Thursday 4 May. Please contact Murray Paschke to assist in this Community Project.”
Parish Council update:
· A covenant has been developed for shared worship between the Anglicans & Lutherans at Charleville
· St George preaching place have identified & Parish Council have endorsed a candidate to Bishop Vainikka for SMP training
· LCAQD have informed PC that preaching places are not covered for public liability, The solution is for each preaching place to make a connection to a SWQLP congregation and become an activity of that congregation. There will be no extra cost for the congregation.
· Easter service was well supported at St George with Pr Ken von Pein reporting attendance well beyond the Lutheran community.
· Pr Joel has reached the 3 year milestone with the DMA & has asked the congregations he serves for a Pastoral review.
· How to best meet the ministry needs of the Charleville Lutheran community has been a subject of a lot of correspondence with LCAQD.

· For the Church, LCAQD; that we may obey your laws from the heart
