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. 
Today is the fourth Sunday of Easter – a joyous season that takes us all the way to Pentecost Sunday on 19th May. All are welcome to our Worship Service at 9.30am. During the service we will celebrate Holy Communion. 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". Our worship and communion leader is Rev Lindsay Sheppard.
This Sunday is often called ‘Good Shepherd Sunday’. This is because in John’s Gospel reading, Jesus speaks of himself as the Shepherd who is prepared to lay down his life for his sheep and the sheep hear his voice.
Bible Readings: Acts 4:5-12 Psalm 23 1 John 3:16-24 John 10:11-18
Come and hear today’s message and stay after the service for a cuppa and community time.
