PRAYER FOR THE NEW INCUMBENT Bountiful God, Give to this parish a faithful pastor who will faithfully speak your word and minister your sacraments; an encourager who will equip our people for ministry and enable us to fulfil our calling.

Charity of the Month – January CBM/Fred Hollows Foundation The Fred Hollows Foundation has a very clear goal: to put an end to avoidable blindness. When this day comes, people in developing countries will get the same quality eye care the rest of the world takes for granted. CBM is an International Christian development organisation devoted to improving the lives of people with disabilities in the poorest places on earth. Poverty and disability go hand in hand creating a cycle of inequality, isolation and exclusion that leads to the most extreme forms of poverty. CURRIMUNDI GARDENS EUCHARIST: Will be held every 3rd Tuesday of the month at 2.00pm in the Chapel. The first service will be on the 16 February, 2.00pm. BLUECARD HOLDERS: Reminder to update your Blue Cards when they are due to expire. For those of you who serve in any capacity in the church a current Blue Card is required.

Thought for the Day …… A certain Viewpoint; some USA citizens believe they are involved in a civil war, and have been for a long time. President Trump has merely provided a voice and a power base, this under estimates the power of evil. Frightening isn't it. As we have watched the last few years groan towards an election some of us have wondered if such a thing could happen here. Has it already happened? There are some wonderful things being done by some wonderful people. We take heart from them Bless us all. Fr Clarry Prayer of the Week Father of all, who gave your only-begotten Son to take upon himself the form of a servant and to be obedient even to death on a cross: give us the same mind that was in Christ Jesus, that, sharing in his humility, we may come to be with him in his glory; where he lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. Copyright: Scripture quotations are from the New Revised Standard Version BIBLE, copyright ©1989 by the Division of Christian Education of the National Council of Churches of Christ in the USA.

There are many parishes at present without a priest. This reflects the current difficult situation which is making the search for a suitable priest a challenging one. Your assistance with names is valuable input for the Nominators. The Parish Nominators would like to inform the Parishioners, that since there doesn’t appear a suitable Priest for our Parish available at present in our Diocese, we have spread our search further afield into other Dioceses. Continue to pray for us please. Thank you for your support DID YOU KNOW?

CONTACTING THE OFFICE ADMINISTRATOR: Dear Parishioners, the best method to contact the parish office and to communicate with me is via email. I do have a hearing loss which means that certain tones of speech are more difficult than others to hear clearly over the phone. Rephrasing sentences, speaking clearly at a normal pace rather than rapidly all helps, though the best method to reach me is via email, caloundra@anglicanchurchsq.org.au. Thank you for your thoughtfulness & consideration, Rowena OFFICE ADMINISTRATOR: The office will open Mon-Fri 11am – 1pm for matters that need face to face attention. The use of the collection box and locked green box adjacent to the front door of the Parish Centre can be used for items to be dropped off or collected. Thank you for your assistance, Office Administrator 6
