Highlight event of the year happening this Tuesday night (24th Sept) at @cafecrave - get your team together, register on our website and start working on your team name... 🎤📝💯

This Sunday is special for a couple of reasons.
Firstly, we will be celebrating the baptism of several children, young people and adults who are part of the Saint Augustines' family. We’re giving the whole service over to this very special occasion; following the way of Jesus was never something to be done alone, so come and show your support and encouragement for those being baptised and their families.
Secondly, it’s Father’s Day. We think the Dads among us are some of the most wonderful people in the world, and we want to acknowledge their contribution to our lives and thank them for all they do for us.

There’s a lot here to celebrate, so we’ll be hosting an amazing lunch after the service. Join us and be part of this very special day — not only for these those being baptised, and for our Dads — but for us, the Saint Augustines whanau too.

Podcast’s up people :-) If you missed Jayne’s talk on Calling last Sunday, it’s well worth the listen, and if you’re not familiar with Project Moroto, where Jayne unexpectedly found her Vocation, you can find out more at http://projectmoroto.com/ or watch Jayne’s TED x talk here http://projectmoroto.com/about-us/

Here's the third of our top picks for books on the topic of vocation…

The Liturgy of the Ordinary by Tish Harrison Warren In the overlooked moments and routines of our day, we can become aware of God's presence in surprising ways. How do we embrace the sacred in the ordinary and the ordinary in the sacred? Framed around one ordinary day, this book explores daily life through the lens of liturgy, small practices, and habits that form us. Each chapter looks at something―making the bed, brushing her teeth, losing her keys―that the author does every day. Drawing from the diversity of her life as a campus minister, Anglican priest, friend, wife, and mother, Tish Harrison Warren opens up a practical theology of the everyday. Each activity is related to a spiritual practice as well as an aspect of our Sunday worship. Come and discover the holiness of your every day. Available in hardcopy.
It’s not always easy to find books like these in local book stores in NZ. We love supporting local, and most independent booksellers will be able to get these titles in for you, but if you’re having trouble finding them, all three are available from The Book Depository and Every Good Endeavour and Garden City are available as eBooks through Kindle and Kobo, and as audiobooks from Audible and Kobo.

Here's the second of our top three picks for books we love on the topic of Vocation…

Garden City by John Mark Comer You’ve heard people say, "Who you are matters more than what you do." But does the Bible really teach that? In Garden City, John Mark Comer gives a surprisingly counter-cultural take on the typical "spiritual" answer of the church. Comer explores Scripture to discover God’s original intent for how we are meant to spend our time, reshaping how you view and do your work, rest, and life. Here, you'll find answers to questions like does God care where I work? Does he have a clear direction for me? What about what I do with my free time or how much rest I get? In these pages, you'll learn that it's ultimately about the reality that what we do matters, just as much as who we are. Available in hardcopy, as an eBook and as an audiobook.
