Children’s Ministry Training Day – 25th Feb

Dave Sheath — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 05:05:37 +0000

The Entrance Baptist Church and The Lakes Evangelical Church are running a Children’s Ministry Training day on the 25th February at The Entrance Baptist church 8 Yakalla St, Bateau Bay.

We are running seminars on modules 1 and 4 for SRE accreditation. We are also running seminars for Sunday school teachers. The goal of the day is to equip both School Scripture teachers (SRE) and Sunday school teachers as they bring God’s word to the children of our region.

We have invited some highly experienced children’s workers to present on the day and we want to make this training opportunity available to churches across the Central Coast. If you are interested in becoming an SRE teacher or Sunday school teacher please speak to your church representative or just come along and register on the day.

Hope to see you there! You can view or print off a registraion form here.

Growth Groups 2012

Darren Box — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 02:00:21 +0000

Growth Groups are essential to our church. We take Jesus seriously as we study his word and learn to repent of ways that displease him and to be encouraged in ways to follow him.

A small growth group of 5-12 people is an ideal context to do this, as well as to get to know each other more personally.

The Lakes has a variety of Growth Groups including men’s groups, youth groups women’s groups daytime groups, night time groups, mixed groups, locality groups, workers groups…

We are sure to be able to make suggestions that suit your routine, but we hope you would make a Growth Group a high priority for your week.

Just contact the church office or leave a note on the welcome slip on Sunday if you would like us to help you find a Growth Group that is right for you.
