Redlands Easter Festival

THIS EASTER MONDAY 22nd April 2019 from 10am to 3pm showcases REDLANDS as A CARING COMMUNITY, meaning GOOD NEWS FOR REDLANDS CITY! The result of a vision by Pastor Glen Gray that churches should combine to offer a day of free celebration and Christian witness of the Easter message to the greater Redland City community. It has grown each year since. so that it now takes over the Cleveland Showgrounds with a host of sideshow rides, entertainment acts, children's performers and wide range of kids activities, street theatre, free food and drinks and lots more. It attracts approx 18,000 people, making it one the largest annual events in the Redlands.

The God’s Dreaming banner will be there, manned by a crew led by Bishop Barry Cunnington. If you’d like to share the gospel with a friend in a new way, take them along and look for the God’s Dreaming banner.

Beeswax Food Wraps and Candle-Making Workshop

Beeswax is amazing stuff! In this workshop, you will learn how to use beeswax to make your own food wraps and candles. Beeswax food wraps are a great alternative to single use plastics such as glad wrap. You can use them to wrap leftovers, sandwiches, cheese, produce and so much more. They are great for the environment, and will help save you money too. Each attendant will make their own beeswax wrap and a 100% pure beeswax candle. Additional supplies will be available for purchase on the day so that you can make them at home too.

Cost: $45 per person

$10 from each ticket to be donated to God’s Dreaming

Please bring an apron (beeswax is tricky to get off your good clothes!) and wear closed toe shoes

Places are limited so to secure your booking, please contact Holly 0425 763 973 or email hollysbackyardbees@gmail.com and complete bank transfer to:
