Welcome to St Margaret's Anglican Church in Eltham, Victoria, Australia.

We are all shocked and overwhelmed by the fires on our doorstep. Living, as we do, in terrain similar to that which was burnt, people have been saying to me, "it could have been us"! It is difficult to comprehend the scale of the devastation around us, yet at a personal level, each one of us knows friends and family members who are directly affected, one way or another, and our hearts and prayers go out to them.

The wisdom of the Christian way revolves around the shape of Jesus life. During holy week we journey with Jesus, following the pattern of his life, death and resurrection. Come and join with us and Christians through out the ages, who have felt the intimacy of fellowship on Thursday, the suffering of death on Friday and the joy of hope on Sunday. These "Great Three Days" are central to the Christian life. We pray that each may indeed "remember who you are" this Easter.
