Please be advised that the physical office for state operations is closed until further notice. However, the state team is still working and resourcing our churches. Our listed phone number will redirect you to our mobile reception and our staff are still answering emails.

Our church buildings are currently closed but our church communities are connecting with each other in creative ways during this time of physical distancing from one another. Please refer to our list of churches and connect with them through the listed contact information if you would like to find out more about online worship services or pastoral support they are offering during this difficult time.

We aim keep you updated on relevant information through our latest news from time to time.

Here is a toolkit for how to be safe and connect with one another as neighbours

Let's stay connected through Prayer this Wednesday 7-8pm.

There will be zoom meeting link through later in the week for those who can connect that way.

If you have a prayer request, there is a tab on this APP which you can select to post a private prayer request.

You can also contact us with your prayers via our church email address admin@marioncc.org.au

It's so important to communicate with God — and there’s no better way to do so than with a prayer.

Our daily prayer allows us to strengthen our relationship with the Lord and truly appreciate the power that our faithful words have.

“Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.” Romans 12:12

A Prayer for theGlobal Church

Dear God,

Thank You that we get to be a part of Your global Church at this moment. Thank You for the opportunity to spread Your love and hope to a world living in darkness and despair.

[Your Word](https://www.bible.com/bible/97/2CH.7.12) says that if Your people humble themselves, turn away from wickedness, and call on Your name, that You will answer them and heal their land.

Kids@Marion Parents and Carers,

Some more information to help over the weekend - with Utube and other links on their way soon so you can hear the Word online, listen to the music and communion thought.

As families bunker down at home during the COVID-19 pandemic, you might find it handy to have a guide to age appropriate movies for children. Many thousands of titles are now at your fingertips, but which will be enjoyable, and not harmful?

ACCM (Australian Council on Children and the Media) has refreshed our guide to what is available on Disney+, Netflix and home video to help you weather this latest health crisis.

We’ve utilised our database of Know Before You Go reviews developed over the past 17 years. These show age suitability through our traditional red, yellow, green signals.

Where there is no ACCM review, we have provided the Australian Classification and / or information from The Netherlands’ child-development based Kijkwijzer system.

This guide is a “work in progress”, so do check back for more reviews and updated information over these coming weeks.
