Noisy Bucket - August 29
The devastating floods in Pakistan, which have entered their third week, have now affected 13.8 million people. Through a noisy bucket offering BPUC will be supporting the emergency appeal launched by Act for Peace, the international aid agency of the National Council of Churches in Australia. We encourage you to make as much noise as possible by collecting coins and noisily dropping them into our noisy bucket this Sunday.
Thank You
Thank you so much to Anna Halman and Kate Hollitt for organising a wonderful family BBQ. The food was delicious and a great time was had by all. We look forward to our Church family BBQ in October.

Season of Creation

Time to clean out your cupboards?
This year BPUC is writing its own Season of Creation worship services for September. As part of this we will be creating a community art piece. During August we are looking for fabrics of every colour. They can be any width but the length needs to be at least 1m. They can be plain or minimally patterned. They can be from sheets, curtains, fabric that you bought to make that dress but never did, rope, ribbon … it’s time to get creative!
Got questions? – talk to Jenni or Neryl.
