At the heart of being Presbyterian is an ethos of ‘we’re in this together’. St Paul’s imagery of the church as the body of Christ is familiar way of looking at it. We are not the church by ourselves, we are in this thing together. We want to help this reality be a little bit more real for our young people.
So, we’ve come up with ‘Gather and Go’ a combined Presbyterian Youth event for the Christchurch region where we do exactly that. We gather – celebrating who we are together, getting to know each other, helping one another in our faith. Then we Go – back to our places where God has called us to live God’s life out.
Our first one is coming up on August 15, 5:30pm at St Paul’s Trinity Pacific – cnr Madras & Cashel. Bring your young people and come and join! We’d love to see you there!
