What is Messy Church?
An alternative family-oriented church!
Messy Church is a time for families to connect with each other and with God in a relaxed atmosphere. It is an alternative, family-oriented church that aims to make fun and doing the centre of worship.
When: First Sundays of each month, 4–6 pm (except in school holidays)
Where: Here at Blackwood Uniting Church
Cost: $10 donation per family which includes a meal.
*We suggest a donation of $10 per family to cover costs, but if that’s a problem, don’t let that stop you coming. We’d rather have you there than not.
During 2023, we will be looking at the Fruit of the Spirit, starting with Love, which slots very well into the month of February indeed!
We will have ever-popular rock painting (love hearts, love bugs, etc), Valentine’s Day cards, sports equipment, string painting, and badge-making for the kids at this session.
