The Pastors’ Pen

Welcome to The Pastors’ Pen, an update for life at Southern Cross. 

Thank you so much for your willingness to support our #droplove flood response at SCPC. We have now closed our drop-in centre at Park Ave with the surplus stock from the ‘Pop-Up Pantry’ going to the food distribution centre on Wyrallah Road.

One need that has arisen in the community over the past week is people ‘dropping a line’ or dropping in to the office to enquire about usage of the hall. Please pray for our Staff Team and Committee of Management Executive as they handle those requests.

Our AGM that was postponed due the flood crisis has been rescheduled for Sunday 3rd April. Stay posted for the timing of the meeting. We anticipate the meeting will go for around 45 minutes. 

At this point in time with the all the changes affecting The Rivers Secondary College Campuses we haven’t been provided a time for a return to the hall. Therefore, we will continue to meet at Park Ave on Sundays at 9:15am (Coutts, Maxwell, & Griffiths Gospel Communities) and 10:45am (Henderson, Herd, Kemsley & Playsted Gospel Communities). St Paul’s (Lismore Presbyterian Church) will also be using our building on Sundays. SCG will continue to meet at Invercauld House at 9am. We hope to be a position to return to hall at Lismore High School on the first weekend of the NSW school holidays, Sunday 10th April.

What a traumatic time our town and community is suffering from. May we be a place of solidarity and refuge for those whose lives are still at sea, for we have an anchor for our souls.  

19 We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, 20 where our forerunner, Jesus, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever.
Hebrews 6:19-20
