The last TBC happenings for 2009

Hi, this is the last TBC Happenings for 2009.

This is to remind you that the Christmas Eve Service starts at 7 p.m. It will be a wonderful family event and a great time to focus on the reason for our celebration.

We are still keen to get more flyers out to advertise the Christmas Eve Service, so if you wish to deliver some of these, there are some sitting at reception with a list of streets already delivered to.  The church office will be open until about 4 on Wednesday.

Have a wonderful Christmas with family and friends.  Take opportunity to reflect on, and be thankful for, all of God's blessings to us as a church and individually this year.  Enjoy Christmas.

See you Thursday night

Can you help

Hi again, 

Jess Angove has made contact with a young woman who has a 2 year old boy and is about to give birth to twin girls. This young woman has very little and was blown away by a few things that Jess has passed on to her. We are hopeful that as a Church we could get a few more things together to help support her at this time and maybe even whip up a few meals to put in her freezer.

She is in need of clothes (both for her son and the twin girls) and pretty much any other baby things that are spare eg carseats, cots, etc. If anyone has good quality used goods that they would be willing to pass on to this young woman could they please contact Jess Angove (ph 827 0450) so she can coordinate the delivery.

Thanks so much.

Flyers for Christmas Eve Service

Christmas Eve

Hi, would you have some spare time as a family, couple or individuals to deliver abundle or two of flyers for the CHRISTMAS EVE SERVICE?    We have bundles of about 30 sitting at reception plus a sheet of paper for you to fill in of where you will be delivering the flyers.

If you can help in any way, that would be awesome.  Just drop into the church at 32 Kaurilands Road, between 9 and 4, and pick up some bundles.

Thank you so much

This Sunday is our celebration Sunday and Farewell to Grahame

Hi there, want to know what's coming up this week?

This Sunday is our celebration Sunday and Farewell to Grahame.

A request:

This is very short notice, but we are wondering if there is a family in the church who would like to decorate a Christmas tree for this Sunday.  We can supply fairy lights and some decorations. It would be great if this was a real tree, but if anyone has a tree that they are not using, that would be awesome.   It would need to be done tomorrow or early Sunday morning. If anyone is able to do this, please contact Michelle Warner at 021 372327  

What’s Coming Up:

Walk Across the Courtyard Free Lunch – This Sunday – Lunch in the staffroom straight after the service.  A great place to connect with people.

Christmas Eve Service at the school 7 p.m. start.  This will be an awesome event to finish off our year

The new-look TBC website is now live!   Brook Warner has been hard at work behind the scenes this year making this happen.  We would really love for you to check it out sometime.  Click to go there now www.tbc.org.nz.  We want the website to be a great place for communicating what is happening in the life of TBC, so any feedback you have would be awesome.

An update from the team in Argentina

Good morning TBC
It's crazy to think the team has been away only 9 days. Each day has felt like 2 or even 3 rolled into 1. In 1 day we went to prison (very high security, but awesome opportunity), went on live tv, met the mayor, had a press conference, played two games (girls game and guys game) and had a meal. We woke up at 5 and went to bed at 1.30. Not every day is like this, but the ministry opportunities have been exceptional.
We have played a few games and had opportunities to preach the gospel at every on.
A girl was crying after a gospel message I preached at one of the games. I was told after that a certain part of the message had related to events in her own life. She wanted to give all to God.
There is so much I want to share. This team has become very close to me. They are young people growing as the see God's hand working live. They also make me feel very young at times, though I still win the play fights.
Please continue to pray for the players. Some struggle to have the courage to share, a bit overawed. Having said that they mix very well and are treated with the regard of a professional football team here.
Paige is playing with a broken toe, Megan, a sore knee, Anthony and Paige with blocked sinus' and me with a 46 year old body. That apart health and fitness is excellent.
As you hear this we are ready to go to Chile.
I will try to put the story about Argentina on the website as soon as.
God bless you all. I look forward to sharing more.

 Kim
