Guest Preacher: John Na'em Snobar

We are pleased to welcome John Na’em Snobar as our guest preacher at our 7:30am and 9:30am services at Holy Spirit this Sunday. As a lawyer, former Australian diplomat, Director of Advocacy for Palestinian Christians in Australia, and as someone whose family story is deeply connected to the land where our faith was born—John brings a perspective shaped by lived experience, history, and faith. In a time when conversations about the Middle East can feel complex, sensitive, and at times overwhelming, John’s visit offers us a chance to hear from the often unheard voices of Christian communities in the region, and reflecting on how our faith calls us to hold complexity with humility, compassion, and care for all people.

Deliverance ministry asks how God meets people in places of deep struggle, naming the realities of suffering, oppression, and healing while discerning what it means to seek wholeness in Christ. Rev’d Claye Middleton draws on pastoral practice and theological reflection to engage deliverance ministry with care, accountability, and a strong commitment to the dignity and wellbeing of all people.

Encountering God in Scientific Enquiry

Scientific enquiry invites us into practices of attention, humility, and wonder—ways of knowing that do not diminish faith, but can deepen our awe before a mysterious and generative God.

A Beautiful Lent (Lent study)
Feb
17

A Beautiful Lent (Lent study)

The liturgical year is not simply a cycle to observe or a set of traditions to maintain. It is a way of being formed—slowly, patiently, and ever more deeply—by the story of God’s love in the world.

Drawing on “A Beautiful Year” by Diana Butler Bass, this Lent Study helps us encounter the church year as a living rhythm that shapes perception, expands our faith, and widens our capacity for mercy and justice.

Through scripture, memory, and attentiveness to contemporary life, these reflections remind us that Lent becomes not a detour from ordinary life, but a way of inhabiting it more truthfully.

Tuesdays 10:30-11:30am with Rev’d Deb in the courtyard at Holy Spirit, Kenmore. Sign up at the back of the church or email rector@kenbrookang.org.au
