Fashion Parade 2026
Back by popular demand, we are presenting once again the St Columba’s Fashion Parade and High Tea in the Parish Centre on Saturday, 3 October at 2.00pm. To secure your ticket(s), please email stcolumba@bigpond.com. Hope to see you there!
A New Service
A new service at St Columba’s intended to be specifically sensitive to and accepting of those who may benefit from a more relaxed environment, or anyone with sensory needs often unmet in many church services. Modifications are made to sensory elements of the service, like lighting and sound, to eliminate surprise and reduce anxiety levels, making this service more welcoming for some people. There is a carpark next to the parish centre, or alternatively, there is plenty of parking in Kent St. Just walk through the Close (the park 2A Kent St) to the church and parish centre.
It’s Beautiful Inside and Outside.
Surrounded by beauty, the interior of St Columba’s offers those who visit a space of sanctuary and spiritual presence. An oasis of retreat from a busy life and the world outside. Come and enjoy the experience anytime you see that ‘church open’ sign outside the church on Cross Road.
Columba Playtime
A small structured playgroup for children from birth to school age and their carers. Held during term time on Friday 10 – 11.30 am in the Parish Centre, St Columba’s Anglican Church, 3 Rosevear Street, Hawthorn. A great opportunity to interact with your child, meet other parents/grandparents/carers and help your child learn new skills. We have a theme for each term and a different topic each week. The morning begins with free play, then we come together for circle time with songs, a short video clip, a story and a game before having morning tea, a craft activity and more free play. We then come back together for our Goodbye Song and a sticker.
Join us for our weekly Bible study
Studying scripture adds to the Christian life. Join us any Friday as we look a little deeper at the Sunday readings. Join us weekly or come and give the study a try. Best to check the calendar of events below to make sure we are meeting the day you wish to come – we miss a couple of Fridays a year.
