Worship Online Sunday 12th July
Channel: St Luke's Uniting Church Highton
Date: 11/07/2020

Recent events have demonstrated clearly that COVID-19 is an aggressive virus which will not be easily thwarted.  As a people of faith, we have resources to support us through these days. 
In the last video we reflected on the hope Jesus offers, summarised in the words of the great invitation   “Come to me all you that are weary and carrying heavy burdens and I will give you rest.”  
Today we will be exploring some more resources of the faith.
As part of this we will hear from Rhonda Dingle who will offer some guidance for stilling our souls and minds … and opening ourselves to God.
