Worship - Manning Uniting Church

We worship as a community at Manning Uniting Church every Sunday at 9.30am. All are welcome.

Our Worship Service involves participation, both formally and informally. Music, singing, words and images are part of our worship.

Holy Communion is celebrated on the 3rd Sunday of the month. The offer to share in the Lord's meal of bread and wine/juice is open to anyone "who loves the Lord and wants to love Jesus more".

Following the service everyone is invited for a cuppa and to enjoy conversation and community time in the auditorium.

Welcome to Worship @ Manning Uniting Church on Palm Sunday, March 29th at 9.30am. The service will be conducted by Beth Norling, and we are delighted to welcome Ed Trotter back with us to bring us the Reflection, which he has named “Palm Obsession”. ALL WELCOME.

Palm Sunday commemorates Jesus’ triumphant entrance into Jerusalem, marking the start of Holy Week and the final journey to Easter. Celebrated the Sunday before Easter, it features the blessing of palms, processions, and shouts of "Hosanna," honoring Jesus as King, while remembering his humble ride on a donkey.

After the service we gather for a time of connecting over a cuppa. New people and visitors are most welcome to join us.

Bible Readings: Isaiah 50: 4-9a Matthew 21: 1-11
