Membership
What does membership at Good News mean for me?
As a city congregation, we see people come and go over the years. While you're with us, we'd love you to get to know others in whatever way works best for you. We pray that when you need some help, you'll know where to turn and the rest of us won't be saying 'if only we'd known about his/her need!'
All running costs for our congregation, plus a contribution to the Lutheran Church of Australia, are funded by our Sunday offerings, which is both a discipline to help you grow in faith and completely optional. A regular offering plan, whether by Regular Automatic Giving (REG) or offering envelopes, would help a lot. Please use this form to get set up:
Governance
Leadership and decision-making
Every confirmed member of Good News is a voting member. General meetings of the congregation are held twice a year, usually in March and November for general business and planning of our ministry. Between these times Good News Church Council meets monthly on behalf of the congregation to coordinate our ministry, management and governance. Any voting member may volunteer for election to Church Council.
