About the celebration

Christ Church historic building For the first time in our history, all our 10 congregations will meet as one at the new Wycliffe Christian School auditorium to celebrate our anniversary year — 120 Years for the Parish and 50 Years for St George's Winmalee.

St Georges old building We will meet at 10.30 am for our special church — this will include presentations, input from our youth & children's ministries, a children's program and will be followed by a light lunch.

A new Parish Anniversary DVD will be launched at this celebration.

This will be the only church meeting held in the Parish that Sunday — so that we can all be together to celebrate God's goodness in calling us out to be His people here on the Lower Blue Mountains.

So put this in the diary now and don't miss it for quids — it only comes around every 120–50 years!

Missions and Ministry Expo

All our ministry leaders and mission reps have been invited to have a special part in our Anniversary Church to be held on Sunday 20th July @ Wycliffe Christian School. Each of our SWAC ministries and Link Missions will be able to present a display table or stand explaining & promoting their ministry.

Such an Expo has long been talked about and now finally coming to fruition.

We figured what better day could we choose to celebrate and review our ministries here and around the world. As we celebrate 120 years+ of being God's people here in the Mountains, the Expo will be a great reminder that we are "people with purpose — we are God's ambassadors and His partners in His mission."
