Together Sharing Christ’s Love
Welcome to:
Redeemer, Macalister
St Mark’s, Dalby
Liturgical Colour: Green
The Sundays after Pentecost (known as the "non-festival" season of the church year) are the Sundays in which we concentrate on the growth of the church.
They begin with Trinity Sunday, and ends with "Christ the King" Sunday, where we focus on the end times, and the second coming of our Lord Jesus.
The Gospel lessons for this season concentrate on the teaching and ministry of Jesus. The Old Testament and Epistle lessons have a semi-continuous narrative, with the Revised Common Lectionary (which we customarily use) giving two options for the Old Testament lessons, either the stories of the Patriarchs through Genesis and Exodus, or the Prophets.
The liturgical colour for the Sundays after Pentecost (which comprises roughly half of the church year) is green, as this symbolises new life and growth.

Prayer Points for the Week:
for the outreach of the church, that its members may not be motivated by money or numbers but by a yearning to see people saved
for all in Australian government (the Queen, prime minister, leader of the opposition, premiers, upper and lower houses, mayors, councils, etc ), that they may not be driven be selfish ambition but service to the people
for businesses, that they do not feed off the poor to feed the rich
for the victims who suffer because of the selfishness of others (including people in third-world countries whose dictators restrict aid to their people, and those under repressive and unjust governments)
