CHURCH LIFE
MAINLY MUSIC PLAYGROUP ***WATING LIST APPLIES***
We at St John’s have a commitment to the nurturing and support of families. With this in mind, we offer a weekly playgroup program for toddlers and their parents/grandparents/carers called “MAINLY MUSIC”. This is a program of Christian based music and actions for parents interacting with their small children from babies up to about 3 and a half. It involves a 30 minute mixture of music, movement, rhymes and action. This is followed by morning tea, which is provided by St John’s, a time of play for the children and a time of fellowship for all. Our program is held on Friday mornings and the cost is $4 per family per session. DUE TO POPULARITY OF OUR PROGRAM A WAITING LIST APPLIES....For more information, contact Jill Crane on (07) 4124 5652.

CURSILLO
CURSILLO (a Spanish for Short Course) is a worldwide movement within many Christian churches. Cursillo is a method that helps us to consciously live in God’s grace and to bring into our daily lives, the feeling of community we can share as Christians. A 3 day Cursillo weekend is the way to join the movement, and these are held annually.
