LOOKING FOR A CHURCH? Revesby Uniting Church attempts to be a place where people can look at life, the world, the scriptures, and spirituality, without being coerced into a literal understanding. At the same time, it is a place where people with quite different perspectives on many issues, seem to be able to travel together. Please know that you will be very welcome at any of Revesby's events and services - we'd love to meet you! |

Sydney is one of THE most wonderful cities in the world - but that makes it a popular destination. And so there are plenty of new families in our suburbs. And when you've moved, it can sometimes be quite a challenge to make new friends. Here's an article you might find helpful if you are wanting to meet new friends. (And of course, many church communities are great places to meet people also!)
One of the exciting happenings at Revesby Uniting Church at present, is the experimentation with a very different type of evening gathering on Sundays. We have looked at the story of the Good Samaritan, as well as a clip from the film, "Evan Almighty" - a humorous modern-day look at the story of Noah. And then we discussed the two texts, and whether something can be true, even though it's not historical.
The format for the Sunday evening gathering we're currently trying is very participative, with time for modern worship music, plenty of discussion, NO PREACHING!!!, and coffee and something light to eat. Topics have ranged from questions about what makes life worth living, to moments of awareness of spirituality, to the decision to have fun in life, to ... Well, basically discussions that are relevant, hopefully, and where the given is that we are looking for answers together, not simplistically prescribing for others.
Anyway, if it sounds like this might be you, and you're roughly between 2 and 92, know you'll be welcome every Sunday at 7pm!
