We are looking forward to welcoming Rev. Allan Thompson who will lead us in worship this Sunday whilst David is on leave.  We will be celebrating Holy Communion in the Church at 10.00am.  All are welcome to share in Holy Communion.  There will be a chance to meet over a cuppa in the Hall from 11.00am.

If you would like to contribute or request prayers we invite you to do so and to visit our Prayer Garden.  We do ask that prayer requests be sensitive to and respect personal privacy.

Whilst our Minister Rev David Parker is on leave through April, 2010, worship will be led by Rev.  Allan Thompson (April 11 - Holy Communion), Mr Andrew Wood (April 18), Mr Nigel McBrien (April 25 - ANZAC Day).  Nigel will also lead Family Worship in the Hall on May 2.  David returns to lead worship on May 9.  We wish David a restful and safe time away.

The Ticket First Issue   On Saturday night, the Friends of the Wesley Hobart Museum produced their first issue of The Ticket - the new quarterly newsletter of the Museum Committee.  We were delighted with the effort and with the fact that we were able to distribute copies to the large congregation who worshipped with us on Easter Day. We wish the newsletter every blessing for its onward journey.

1. Where are we as a church in greater Hobart in 2010?
2. Where do we hope or imagine we might be in 2020 and beyond?
3. How might we make this journey or transition from 2010-2020
4. What do we need to do now to respond to this report?

It’s a report that attempts to paint a vision for us as a church, and invites a response from congregations, faith communities and agencies.For further information go to Blogroll on right and click Tasmission
