Thank you so much to team who produced our palm crosses for this year's Palm Sunday service! There was lots of learning and laughing going on in the WMC lower hall on Friday morning as these works of art were being produced :)

This week we had a memorial service to celebrate the life of Doff Ponsie. Doff and her husband Rob worshipped and served in this church for many years. In the tributes that were shared, one of the things that was repeatedly said about Doff was that she made people feel welcomed and seen.
On Thursday this week it took me three hours to get to the office on my morning commute (there were accidents on the M13 and Field's Hill was closed for a few hours, while hundreds of us sat in Durban's biggest parking lot ... waiting).
Connecting
Groups
Great as it is to be all together on Sundays, it is in small groups that we experience the best of community life - friendships, encouragement and a shared journey following Jesus in the midst of ordinary life. Contact us if you'd like to join a group, or visit our groups page for news and more info.
Come and meet us
It's easy to feel anonymous in a church community, but we really want to get to know all our people. We serve tea and eats at every service and would love to meet you! If you're new, sign up for one of our regular Newcomers Tea's.
Staying in the loop
Contact the office to be added to our WhatsApp group and/or email list to keep up to date with what is happening in our community (and have a look at our weekly Staying Connected newsletter).Getting involved
Mission projects
We support many worthwhile causes in our area and host two relief projects on our property - the Westville Churches Food Bank and our Soup Kitchen. Plan to come and visit these projects and find out where you can play your part.
Serving in a team
Serving forms us. It changes us from guests into hosts and really makes us feel like part of the church family. Whatever your gifts and availability, we have a team for you to join - musicians, greeters, tea / coffee pourers, tech support, maintenance gurus, designers, decorators, organisers, communicators, and more! Let us know where you'd like to help.
Giving
Ministry is made possible at WMC through the faithful and generous giving of our people. More than that, for Jesus, giving is a discipleship issue - it reveals where our heart is. Find more details about our planned giving programme here.Questions
If you need help or advice with a memorial service, please contact our office. Your family do not need to be linked to our church - we will do our best to help.
