Walk and Wonder
Featuring local Lane Cove bush walks of approximately 1.5 hours, easy to moderate grade. We walk on the third Sunday afternoon of the month. Our groups are intergenerational and multicultural. Many of our walkers are 50+ but we also have younger adults and families join us and find the children engage very well. We enjoy discussion over shared snacks mid-way. The only cost is contributing a snack to the common 'table'. Games in the Park
Join us for some fun at Helen Street reserve, Lane Cove North each last Sunday of the month 2.30- 5pm. There are games such as table tennis, volleyball, bocce, giant chess, family and children's activities so that everyone can join in - or watch if they prefer. Also some free fitness sessions by generous local providers. Each 'games day' varies a little in what is being offered by our generous community. Lunchtime Games in the Plaza
Fridays 12.30-2pm, outside seating at Two Brothers Cafe. Chess sets are provided so you can join in or bring your own board game to introduce into the mix. Standards vary, so feel welcome to join in or watch if you prefer. Buy a beverage to support our host cafe. Explore
Small groups who share over dinner or a coffee helping each other explore our spirituality and what it takes to be a Christian today. An open, confidential, non-judgemental environment in which to share what is relevant to our lives. A place where deeper relationships are formed. 'It feels like family'. Book Club
Our current book is God is Good For You. A Defence of Christianity in Troubled Times by Greg Sheridan. $50 for the series covers supper of cheese, wine and snacks. This popular group is now open to new members as we begin our new book, discussing section by section in depth, as it relates to our lives. Everyone is welcome and all people and their views are respected. Each second Thursday of the month at 7pm. |
Coffee or Dinner anyone?
Some low key gatherings where you can just turn up and enjoy the company of others over food and beverages. Coffee groups:

Reflective Activities and more
Retreats: We have enjoyed some wonderful retreats including reflective bush walking, exploring ancient spiritual practices, creative pursuits, and great food! Our last 1 day retreat on Sat 11 May was great and we are planning another in August. If you are interested, contact us to learn more. You don't need to be Christian, just respectful of others' beliefs, open to meeting some new people and having a good time! Buddies
Sometimes people just need a little help to get started! Buddies are local volunteers who will come alongside you and help you take some new steps in a gently supportive way. It's a nuanced initiative to suit who you are and what you want to do. |
