Dear Church!

There is one change from last week due to the new restrictions that come into force tonight.  If you are on-site for church tomorrow, please wear a mask. The only difference from last week is Gladys is no longer asking you to wear a mask. She is telling you to!

The rules and requests around attending churches have changed slightly. We are still going to be offering a live stream or Zoom service at both Christmas services but we are also happy for people to attend church in person. Please understand if you attend:

1. You will have to “sign in” as usual and we will be using the 1 person per 4 metre seating rules.
2. You should be completely well and not in a high-risk group.
3. You should not have attended any of the areas / venues where recent cases of COVID have occurred. Please see https://www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/latest-news-and-updates#latest-covid-19-case-locations-in-nsw for the details of these places.
4. You need to wear a mask, (we will be providing some).
5. You should not sing.

Above all else, if we ever needed a Christmas to remember the difference our saviour coming made to us, surely this is it.

He came as an illegitimate child to a young couple from an oppressed people, away from home, who were unable to obtain accommodation, in a dirty stable and was born into what looked like a really uncertain life and was hunted from childhood and whilst all that is true, God was utterly in control.

All our lives have looked a lot less secure this year in just about every way, but God is still utterly in control.

And for us (and all the world) a saviour has been born, praise God!
