Thoughts from the Desk

Great news from PNG! The team is having an awesome time and God is doing some amazing things. They have been out to the Duke of York islands working with schools and families there. No power, no hot water! A great experience. They stayed there for three days. This weekend they are ministering in churches in Rabaul.

Keep praying for them. They return on Friday.

This Monday we remember Bruce, Katey and their family as they participate in Bruce’s dad Bevan’s funeral in Crystal Brook.  Bruce shared in church last week about the godly encounter he had with his dad during his last days.

I spoke at the Pt. Lincoln Baptist church on Sunday where Leigh Philp was ordained.  It was a real sense of celebration.  Leigh shared for a while and from that you could see his love for Pt. Lincoln and the church.  The church’s response showed their love for him.  It’s good to be connected.  Parkside has a good link there.

This week we look forward to a great service.  One of Garry’s relatives, Martyn Smith runs a cafe called, “The Difference Coffeehouse”.  Finding out what the difference is will be part of our adventure this week.

I’m away this weekend in Pt Lincoln attending the ordination of Leigh Philp (previously of Parkside fame!).
The PNG trip starts on Saturday and Kent is bringing the Sunday message from Philippians 3.

Here’s a few lessons that I’ve learned since I learnt it all…
1. I should give people what they need, not what they want
2. There is no substitute for the Christ centred, Spirit filled, community of faith
3. Neither the church nor I can do it all!
