Church open to all on Fridays during Lent

Lent is a special time of the year for Christians and in the lead up to Easter is also a time many people of different backgrounds consider the Christian message.

The Anglican Parish of Bundaberg hope that by opening Christ Church we can offer a safe and welcoming place for all members of our community at this meaningful time of the year.

If you wish to pray, reflect or simply sit in the church, you're most welcome.

You're also welcome to be part in Stations of the Cross service at 12.30pm each Friday.
