Today’s Offering: ADRA Disaster & Famine Relief
Today is the ADRA Disaster and Famine Relief Offering. Your offering will go towards helping ensure that, when disaster strikes, ADRA is always ready and always there to help those who need it most. Donations of $2 or more are tax-deductible. Thank you for your support.
Church Potluck Lunch today
Today is our first combined potluck lunch for 2026. Our Open Circle SS team is hosting. If you’re planning to stay, please plan to bring a savoury, salad and or dessert to share. See you downstairs after the service.
Strategic Plan
Today we are launching our new strategic plan which the church leadership has been prayerfully working on over the past year. I want to encourage you to be present so you can hear the heart and direction we believe God is calling us into. This process is not about adding or removing programs or “improving” for its own sake — it’s about becoming more faithful as a church and as followers of Jesus.
Vision series
Today we are starting a six-week series entitled “Vision”.

Register for Adventurers in 2026
Calling all curious, energetic, and big-hearted kids aged 4–9! Adventurers at Castle Hill Church is a fun-filled program where children explore, play, learn, and grow—together with their parents. Adventurers is a skills- and knowledge-building program designed especially for young children. It creates a safe, joyful environment where families can make lifelong memories while kids build confidence, character, and faith.
Financial Assistance
We are aware of several individuals and families within our faith community who could benefit from practical financial assistance at this time — particularly with school fees, uniforms, and basic food needs. If you feel led to help, you can contribute through the Castle Hill Fund for the Needy. Your generosity provides very real and timely support, and it is deeply appreciated.
Kitchen Helpers
We’re looking for a few volunteers to help in the kitchen this year. If you’re available to lend a hand with food prep, serving, or clean-up, it would be greatly appreciated. Many hands make light work, and it’s a simple but meaningful way to serve our church community. No special skills are required — just a willing heart and a helping spirit. If you can assist, please let Marcus know or speak with the team on the day.
