God's plan for the church

Bobbie Frere | Ephesians 3:1-13 

Although I am less than the least of all the Lord’s people, this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the boundless riches of Christ, and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery, which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things. His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms, according to his eternal purpose that he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord.

It's our privilege, as individuals and as a local church, to be part of God's purposes in the world. Bobbie explores this theme in her talk, and we hear how it works out in practice as Joanne Rose explains her role in the Christ Church Pastoral Care Team. The service is introduced by Peter Frere and also includes a reading from Pat Clayton and prayers from Charlotte Sherlaw-Sturrock.

The recording is an edited version of our Sunday service. The full video version of the service, including music, can be viewed on YouTube.
