CareyOnline: S1 Week 6 @ Carey

SEMESTER 1 | TEACHING WEEK 6

I wasn't feasting on camp food over Easter. I headed to Kawerau and found this magical spot walking the Tarawera Falls track, feasting on creation instead (and wishing I was a tad fitter).
I remember being so grateful for the ability to get out and satiate myself in Aotearoa's beauty while thousands around the world are stilled holed up in quarantine, COVID-infested situations. Or they are one of the thousands fleeing Mexico for a 'better life' in the United States.
What did you do over Easter? And did you taste and see that the Lord is good? It's when we celebrate his ultimate goodness in Jesus' death and resurrection, but did you really TASTE it? Did you really SEE it? I hope you did.
I'd love to see the pics of your Easter weekend. Send them via messenger to me and I'll do a collage.

CHAPEL WORSHIP - Forgiveness, Culture, & Feasting

In the chapel service on Tuesday the 13^th of April we’ll be worshipping the God of forgiveness. We’ll also explore a few of the ways that interpersonal forgiveness can be outworked in the context of Samoa, Aotearoa, and feasting. A special crew will be assisting Tanya Lameta and Phil Halstead to guide us through the service. We look forward to seeing you there.
