PLEASE NOTE THAT THE VENUE HAS BEEN CHANGED. WE'RE NOW MEETING AT OUR TARRAGINDI CENTRE.

Southside Uniting has a COVID safe plan and this allows us to conduct this picnic safely and responsibly.

A chance to get together with others from our congregation and enjoy a day out on the second last day of winter.

Please come with a willingness to talk, a friendly smile and an expectation that you'll meet new people.

Due to COVID19 restrictions you also need to bring everything that you will require - food, drinks, chairs, games.

Moving Forward in Faith – Daring to Risk

Thank you for serving

We value the service that every member of our congregation gives. Each of us, in whatever way, play a part in pursuing God's mission.

To celebrate what you have achieved this year, we invite you to share some time together.

We believe that the exercise of leadership within our congregation is a wonderful gift that you offer to all of us. Because we value your leadership, Southside wants to invest in your leadership development by inviting you to participate in the Global Leadership Summit.

The Global Leadership Summit 2020 is an experience for curious learners, difference makers and people just like you who want to grow deeper in their leadership to make a positive impact wherever they have influence.

This year the GLS will be hosted by our congregation at our Mt Gravatt centre on Saturday 17 October. There is no cost to anyone who offers leadership within Southside and its groups and activities. We'd love others to join us at a cost of $50 per person. For your investment of a day you will receive some world class leadership development, stimulating discussion with other Southside leaders and morning and afternoon tea and lunch.

[To get all this, please follow this link and book your place.](https://southsideuc.ucareapp.com/portal/forms/130)

- Mt Gravatt 8.30am

God wants all of us to serve in, through or beyond the gathered church. In addition to the work that is to be done, when we serve, we are drawn closer to God, closer to each other and we find joy in fulfilling our God given purpose. That’s right! Serving the kingdom of God should be joy filled and life giving. If you’re not experiencing this, maybe you’re not serving where God has called you.

This course will help us identify our Spiritual gifts; Heart’s desire; Abilities; Personality and Experience, and how they may be used best for God.

We will meet on online via Zoom.

A service of readings and carols.

To maximise attendance, this service will have allocated seating. This means that worshippers are asked to wear face masks on entering and exiting the building. Seating will be in designated seats. There will be no standing during the service. Bookings are essential.

Numbers are limited due to Covd19 restrictions, so get in early.

We will have two days of fun exploring some of what Peter learnt about Jesus. We will do this through singing, drama small groups. The days will also include games, craft and electives. The cost covers lunch, morning and afternoon tea, craft and other materials needed for the day.

Electives are:

Cake decorating - children will get their own cakes to decorate and eat.

Scrapbooking - Children will spend some time learning how to scrapbook and make something beautiful.

Camping Skills - Children will learn some things about camping form some Boys Brigade leaders/members.

Pamper - Children will enjoy using some creams, relaxing, and being reminded that they are special.

Messy Games - Children will play some games where they might get messy (they should not wear good clothes)

Please note there will be one elective session each day, we will seek to give children their first and second choice over the two days, but number restrictions may prevent this.

As a ministry of Southside Uniting Church we will be following the Uniting Church Safe Ministry With Children's policy, and all leaders will be screened before hand and hold blue cards. We will also be following all Covd19 requirements, including numbers in rooms, and sanitising and care around the service of food.

We celebrate the hope of the world.
