When We Meet

THE BIG MEETINGS

i61 Saturday – 6-7 pm
i61 Sunday – 11-noon
Our weekend meetings are an hour of live music, comedy, drama, family, friendship and practical useful teaching for all ages. It’s a celebration of God and life and each other! Everyone is welcome. There is no dress code. And the language we use is everyday English, so you will know what we’re talking about from the very first time you visit. At i61, you’ll never be put on the spot or embarrassed. The meeting is our gift to you. When the meeting is done, you don’t have to rush off. The bar opens, and people often like to hang out and chat with friends and make new friends.

Relationships – back in 2009
A five week course for students year 8+ on sex and relationships. It is all about having the confidence to be yourself. It’s about living life like you’re really alive. It’s about relationships without regrets. And it probably means having a good laugh with your mates and making some new friends along the way. Click here for more info.

Finance Workshop
A practical workshop looking at God’s guidance on financial issues. Did you know over half of the parables of Jesus discuss money? We will look at how to deal with debt, how to start on the track to a debt free life, how to budget and how to plan effectively for the future. The workshop is 4 sessions on a Saturday morning. If you would like to be notified about our next Financial Workshop, email steve at i61 dot org.
