07.01.2022 CHRISTMAS GARDEN COUNTDOWN In just 4 weeks, The Christmas Garden trucks will roll into Mawson Lakes to set up. It takes about 2 days.

06.01.2022 SAT 16th from 3pm || Introducing Angels in the Rafters,.....beautiful, live carolling every hour from high above the Christmas Garden scenes.....on Saturday 16th from 3pm-close.

06.01.2022 A huge thankyou to all of our amazing volunteers who put in so much effort to make this year's Christmas Garden a reality for the third year running. Months of meeting, planning and preparing, 3 full days of set up, 3 days running and 2 days of tearing down and carefully packing up our props all ready to do it again next year. A small idea that exploded into a wonderful and magical re-creation of the original christmas story. So many intricate details that really need to be ...experienced in person to truly appreciate what the real christmas story is all about; Jesus. From the first scene of Gabriel appearing to Mary through to the baby in the Manger. It has always been about Jesus. He is in the fine details of every scene. Finishing off with our candy cane garden with an explanation of the candy cane and how it also actually relates to Jesus. This video is a small snippet of what goes on behind the scenes and the effort that our wonderful volunteers put in. Each and every one of you worked so hard. It is truly amazing to watch us all come together as a team and do our jobs with hearts for the Lord. We couldn't do it without you all and most of all we couldn't do this without God who has blessed our little church in so many ways. Please come along to our Easter Treasure Hunt on Easter Saturday March 31st in 2018 where the story of Jesus continues.
