Walking Worthily: Ephesians 1–3
In Christ we are so spiritually blessed: dearly loved and chosen, saved by grace, adopted into God's family, and strengthened by his power. God calls us to walk worthily - to live in a way that shows we are his forgiven people, who are becoming more like him.
This year we’re hosting our own in-house women’s conference called Wholehearted Women. We’ll get to spend time together as women of Christ Church, looking at Ephesians 1–3!
We’ll hear talks and interviews from women across our church, spend time singing together led by a band, and have the opportunity to meet, chat, and learn from women from different congregations. We’ll also share some yummy food together.
Come early from 12.45pm to enjoy a barista-made hot drink or cup of tea before the day begins.
Date: Saturday 30 May
Time: 1.30–5.30pm
Registration:
Adult early bird tickets $20
Adult tickets (after 10 May) $30
Youth tickets (under 18, Senior High) $10
Speakers
Caroline Litchfield
Caroline has been one of the Senior Leadership Team at Christ Church for the past 8 years. Quite a number of years before that she became a Christian here in the youth group, and eventually did a Ministry Apprenticeship here before leaving to study at Moore Theological College, and then 10 years’ of ministry in Adelaide. Caroline loves a beach walk, and a good cup of coffee or herbal tea. She can often be found trying out new cafes – accompanied either by friends or a book – and she is currently trying to find the best plants for her balcony that she might actually be able to keep alive. In Ephesians, Caroline is looking forward to reflecting on how we can live (or “walk” through) daily life in a way that’s worthy of God’s immense grace to us in Christ.
Helen Lovell
Helen is part of the Mornings congregation and first walked through the doors of Christ Church St Ives for a Year 9 Christian Studies assignment and has been around ever since. She’s a stay-at-home mum to two girls (2 years and 9 months) and a former primary school teacher who now specialises in the education of much smaller people. She runs on approximately 2 coffees, 6 half-finished meals, and very little uninterrupted sleep. About Ephesians, Helen is most looking forward to the reminder that all of creation is moving towards the incredible reality of being unified under Christ and thinking about what that means for our lives now as women of God.
Joelle Fuller
Joelle is part of the Nights congregation. She grew up on the Central Coast and moved to Christ Church at the start of 2025. She would say she has always known Jesus as her Lord and Saviour, though Years 7 and 13 were especially significant in choosing to keep following him. During the week, she studies the Bible on Tuesdays and works at church, helping communicate the things happening in our church clearly and in a way that’s visually engaging. Her current weeknight hobbies are going to the gym and creating embroidered felt Christmas tree ornaments. She’s particularly looking forward to exploring the rich treasures of God’s word in Ephesians, and dwelling on his immense power and deep love for us in Christ.
行事为人配得所蒙的呼召：以弗所书 1–3章
在基督里，我们领受了极其丰富的属灵祝福：被深爱、被拣选，因恩典得救，被接纳进入神的家，并因祂的大能得以刚强。神呼召我们行事为人与所蒙的呼召相称——活出与之相符的生命，显明我们是祂所赦免、并且正越来越像祂的人。
今年，我们将举办一场教会内部的女子特会，名为「倾心于神的女子特会」。我们将作为圣艾夫斯基督教会的姐妹们一同相聚，一起查考以弗所书1–3章！
届时，我们将聆听来自教会姐妹们的信息分享与访谈，在乐队带领下一同歌唱，并有机会彼此认识、交流，向不同堂会的姐妹们学习。我们也会一起享用美味的茶点。
欢迎大家在中午12:45提前到达，在活动开始前享用一杯咖啡师现做的热饮。
日期： 5月30日（星期六）
时间： 下午1:30–5:30
