Pastoral Services are special church services that are used only at special moments in our lives. They are often accompanied by appropriate preparation and counseling by our priest. Our priest is fully accredited, discrete and very professional. Not all of the pastoral services are listed here and you do not have to be a member of this church to use what we offer.
If you would like to discuss any of these Pastoral Services further, please call the Reverend Josie Steytler on 0421 115 438. or contact us
Baptism
Baptism / Christening is a simple ceremony of washing in water accompanied by promises to commit to be a follower of Jesus. It is a sign of membership of the Christian.
Weddings
Everyone is welcome to explore the possibility of celebrating their marriage at St John’s. You do not need to be an Anglican. It is usually possible to be married in the Anglican Church after a divorce.
Funerals
A funeral service may help the grief process by enabling you to acknowledge your loss, give thanks for the life of your loved one who has died, make your last farewell, and begin to take up life once more. This service, either a burial or cremation, can be held here at St John’s or within a chapel. You do not have to be a member of St John’s.
Other Pastoral Services
We can offer prayers and a quiet space for healing, or any other life issue; or give thanks and farewell a beloved pet.
