The Weston Church Fair is NEXT WEEK!! For the meat stall we are asking
for donations to cover the cost of one sheep which is $120. If you can help
please contact Duncan and Evelyn Taylor, 431 2789. We are planning for
another successful fair. Thank you to all.
Cupcake decorating competition clarification: "Individual entries must be the
sole work of the entrant" applies to decorating only. The cupcakes themselves
can be baked by others, like clever family members  For details see notice

DO YOU LOVE WORKING WITH FLOWERS?
Come along to Tangibles for a working bee at 1pm on

any flowers you have to good use. Contact Claire 434 6112

Dear friends,
OUR WEBSITE : www.westonchurch.co.nz
Last Sunday was Pentecost; the coming of the Holy Spirit was celebrated. Today is Trinity Sunday
when we celebrate the three persons in the Godhead.
Parents & Preschoolers meet next Thursday 10am at the Weston Church. Morning Tea
provided. All warmly welcome. For info contact Elizabeth 431 7752
One of the most important truths taught by the Bible is that there is only one God. Because there is
only one God, our highest duty is to worship Him alone. What can we say then of the Son and the Holy
Spirit, whose divinity and equality with the Father are found everywhere in the New Testament? What
is the practicality of the Trinity in our everyday lives? Did you know that the word Trinity is not found in
the Bible?
The character of God is more complex than we can readily understand but what is wonderful is that
within the Godhead is all the practicality we need for everyday living. The New Testament writers had
unquestioning faith: “Our master, Jesus Christ, is on his way, He’ll show up right on time, his arrival
guaranteed by the Blessed and Undisputed Ruler, High King, High God. He’s the only one death can’t
touch, his light so bright no one can get close. He’s never been seen by human eyes – human eyes
can’t take him in! Honour to Him, and eternal rule! Oh yes. (1 Tim 6:15, 16.) Msg.
At the Weston 10.30am service today Sharyn and Ron share on a very interesting topic. I put their
key verse on the front of the bulletin today. I want to encourage Weston folk today as next Sunday is a
Youth led service with Brad Kelderman (the Synod Youth Advisor) speaking. Youth led does not mean
a Youth service. The 10.30am service is not just for Youth but it is a service for everyone led by our
Young people. Brad brings a wonderful message and the young people need our support and
encouragement as they lead worship.
May God bless you all richly this morning and through the coming week.
Nancy

Do you enjoy a cuppa after the Morning service? Would you consider to help with Morning
Tea? We desperately need more Morning Tea Servers after the Weston 10.30 service. Also
we are very short on Church Cleaners this time. If you would like to serve Christ this way
please let Sylvia know. Also the Welcoming Roster is due for renewal at the end of June.
Please advise Sylvia of any changes.

no coordination, no sense of rhythm, can't shake like a latino, and hate exercise but need to
do it.... then this is the class for YOU. I'll be teaching you the steps and tricks to be able to do
all those moves. YOU CAN DO IT!! And YES, it can be FUN too!! Please send me a text
