The Music Team at Marion Church of Christ has stepped into the world of Virtual Choirs

Singing a beautiful rendition of "The Blessing" by Kari Jobe and Cody Carnes, we joined together via our phones and studio through the COVID-19 pandemic.

Thank you so much to everyone who participated and the behind the scenes team.

Please share with your friends and family - connect with one another and surround yourself with these beautiful words:

The Lord bless you

And keep you

Make His face shine upon you

And be gracious to you

The Lord turn His

Face toward you

And give you peace

Let us join together in prayer from your home - you can connect as a family, or in solitude and quiet, in your garden or car, over the phone or in the ZOOM session.

If you'd like the link for the ZOOM prayer session, please contact our office on admin@marioncc.org.au

Gracious God,

We give thanks anew for your providence and presence.

We prayerfully seek your grace, amidst COVID-19 here and overseas.

We pray for those in need of healing.

We pray for your peace with those who are anxious or grieving.

We pray you will continue to strengthen and sustain

all those who are serving in response.

We pray for your Holy Spirit’s discernment

amidst the many choices and decisions

facing our national, community and medical leaders.

We pray we each might see quickly what more we can do

to help those who are vulnerable.

This prayer for our nation in the family of nations,

with all that is on our hearts,

we gather now and pray

through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Thank you to everyone who has been supporting us in this new way of connecting with one another.

God is good. God is present. God is faithful.

MarionLIFE is still operating as an essential service and we’re working hard to continue being a source of enrichment and hope for the community.

MarionLIFE Emergency Relief Service is continuing to operate, with a management plan in place. We welcome donations of non-perishable in-date food & hygiene items for our Emergency Pantry.

All of our other Services are suspended or postponed and this is likely to remain the case for a number of months however we have launched THE STAYING TOGETHER PROJECT to bring people together, connecting volunteers with those in our neighbourhood who want someone to check in with them through the coming months.

Last week we had many wonderful, encouraging comments about our first steps into doing our church services online during this challenging period of time.

This week we are continuing this new style of MCC church services online at 10am and 6pm with WORSHIP, COMMUNION REFLECTION and SERMON - and the ability to utilise the chat area to connect with one another by praising God and uplifting those who have participated behind the scenes.

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

Join us each week as we discover how to live a fruitful life.
