Sept10 BACK TO CHURCH
– For breakfast!
This Father’s Day, some families didn’t give Dad breakfast in bed, they gave him breakfast in church instead!
St Aidan’s Anglican Church Dayboro invited the whole community to an informal breakfast on September 5, followed by a Holy Communion service with a special theme honouring the role of fathers.
Look out for photos in the next Grapevine, but some of the congregation had a ‘practice run’ for the breakfast on August 1 (pictured above), turning the pews around and enjoying a time of warm conversation and laughter.
The Fathers’ Day special event was the second in a series of three services called Back to Church. The final service in the series will be at 8.30am Sunday September 12, which is Back to Church Sunday in Anglican churches right around Australia.
Everyone is warmly welcome to come, whether they have been to church before or not! It is an opportunity for anyone who hasn’t been to church for a while to come back and see what’s been going on. There is also a kids’ talk and activities.
The first service in the series was on St Aidan’s Day, 29 August, with the theme Back to Basics. It retold some of the story of Aidan of Lindisfarne, the church’s namesake, a seventh century church worker who had a very down-to-earth approach to his rural community.
