Jesus
Bread of Life
In a time when the world is hungry for the truth
draw those in need to use: the waiters of your banqueting table,
that we may present you, the sustainer of life
and satisfier of all true thirsts
that all may be filled.
Through our heavenly provider,
Jesus Christ
Amen

We are the “Life Group” of school leavers and tertiary students for Church of the Saviour. There are nine o us, and we meet weekly at the church. We meet to stimulate one another in our Christian life through Bible study, fellowship and prayer. Our hopes and dreams are:
- To mature as Christians
- To discern God’s will for our lives
- To reach out to others
We’d like you to pray for us, that we would be effective witnesses in our community.
