Discipleship Initiative: Family Dinner THIS SUNDAY 6.30pm.

A space for discipleship — shaped by the whole church.

This is a discipleship (Life) group for young adults, built on the belief that spiritual growth happens best in community, across generations.

Each dinner is a chance to gather around the table, share a meal, and have honest conversations about faith, life, and identity in Christ — and some of the topics that are challenging.

We’re inviting voices from all walks of life to help shape and disciple people across generations. Whether you’re young, older, in-between, or just curious — you’re welcome.

Who’s invited?

Young adults — this is for you.
Seniors — we need your wisdom.
Mid-lifers — your experience matters.
Youth — if your parents are keen, come along.
Young parents — book a sitter, we’d love to have you.
Kids — sorry, it’s bedtime!
Let’s become a community that listens well, disagrees kindly, and grows together in Christ.

When? First Sunday of the month - 6:30-9:00

Where? WCC

Since 2016 HELP’s donors have been giving to the ’Sipho’s Stars’ project which aims to put Christmas gifts in the hands of as many children as possible in Khayelitsha Township in Cape Town in South Africa.

HELP sends funds to our partner Uyesu Unathi which are all used to buy items locally, compile packages and distribute them to children who would otherwise not receive a Christmas gift.

KHAYELITSHA TOWNSHIP
