Because we are going into lockdown over the weekend, there will be no church held this coming Sunday 10 Jan 2021
As members of the Anglican Parish of Waterloo Bay, we are aware of the spiritual and financial support needed to nurture and grow our Parish.
And we are also aware of the diverse needs outside of our Parish, in our own community, our State and Nation, and many countries within this world.
The task of Mission and Outreach remains unfinished today, both within our own country Australia, and throughout the world.

Sunday 23rd May:
Ships don’t bring us over 95% of everything we have - Seafarers do.
Over the years the Mission has sought to help seafarers in all kinds of practical ways.
They are away from their families for long periods and may face loneliness and ill-health or injury. The welcome from the MTS Chaplains and volunteers may be the only onshore hospitality they receive.
Rev. Ian Mc Gilvray is one of the Chaplains for the Mission in Brisbane, and preached at St George's at the 7.15 & 9.30 Services on 23rd May.
