What is Sipwell??

In Central Victoria, (Australia) indigenous Australians moved from place to place, often stopping at small wells they'd carved along the side of granite outcrops to catch the rain. They drank from these Sip-wells with a straw to refresh themselves for the next leg of the journey.
Sipwell has taken this name to reflect the fact that we come together as a community of Christian people and searchers, seeking spiritual refreshment and nurture.
We are an open community and our gatherings reflect our search for meaning.

Sipwell is an experimental, inclusive, ecumenical, in the round, community of faith gathering in the Christian tradition. The gathering will be in Maldon at 5pm on Saturday the 20th of July at the Uniting Church hall in Fountain st, Maldon. We hold Sipwell on the third Saturday of each month. We begin with some music and a short worship at 5pm, break for a shared meal at 6pm, after which we hold both a discussion group and a creative time and finish by 8.00pm.
