MtE Update – June 6 2021

  1. Worship this Sunday June 6 will be a live-streamed service without a gathered congregation [that is, we cannot gather as a congregation at the church this week!]. You can access this from the green ‘Live Stream Sunday Service’ image-link at the top of our home page, or direct from our YouTube channel from 10am on Sunday.
  2. For those interested in exploring Taize’s style of worship, Northcote UCA is conducting a monthly service: info.  
  3. An online event which may interest some: Imagining a better world
  4. The following was mentioned in a recent congregational conversation and may be of interest to some members ‘You might have seen the Morrison Government wants to hand $50 million in public money over to gas corporations to frack the Northern Territory. But Traditional Owners have been saying no for over a decade, and have written a letter to Parliament demanding they put an end to fracking once and for all. [There’s a online petition you can contribute to:] http://getup.to/pKrqVhB7ehn9jux
