Donnybrook Community Church launches its first public service
Rev Kathryn Jensen, the Congregational Church Planter in Donnybrook successfully launched the first public service at Kirrip Community Centre in Wollert on the 26th of June 2022, 18 months after a core team from Mill Park Baptist Church dared to plant a church in the ever-expanding, multiethnic growth corridor of Melbourne’s North (during a pandemic!). Our ‘Launch and Lunch’ was well attended by visiting friends and supporters from our sending church and beyond.
We wrapped up a 5-part series developing missional habits of hope, based on Mike Frost’s book, ‘Surprise the World’. These missional habits of radical generosity, inclusive hospitality, Spirit-led listening, Jesus-centred learning, and apostolic sending now form a new way of being in our neighbourhood.
