Housemoot tonight & tomorrow, plus other other Upcoming Events at NewLife Church

Newlife Church Housemoot Tonight

Housemoot is a DIY web conference designed to help people build community, drawing together around art, music, story and the gospel. At the core is the belief that faith should lead to good art, and good art should reveal something of God’s amazing creative nature.

You are invited to join our gathering (“moot”) this year at Ruth and Suchiththa’s house across the weekend for movies, discussions, music and food. This is the loose plan:

Friday 15th November 7.30pm - 10.30pm

Film screening of The Hiding Place - a filmed play adaptation of Corrie Ten Boom’s autobiographical story. Eat dinner beforehand but we will have snacks.

Saturday 16th November 12.00pm - 8.00pm (flexible)

A full day to hang out as a community (including lunch and dinner) and discuss creativity and faith. We will watch and discuss two of the Housemoot video sessions and have plenty of time to enjoy time together too.

Links to the RSVP signup and Housemoot website are here. We would love to have confirmed numbers by Sunday 10th November to help with planning. Hope you can join us!
