Partnership Becomes Personal

Next week the rest of our Carnarvon Mission team fly out. It is the culmination of months of preparation. It also is a concrete expression of our partnership in the gospel. The Kingdom of God is not constrained by geographic boundaries or state borders. The good news about Jesus is the way of salvation for every person. Over the next two weeks, 39 members of Dapto Anglican Church will be helping St. George Anglican Church at Carnarvon in getting that message out to their whole township.

Please support us in prayer. Pray that God’s Spirit opens doors and hearts to the message of salvation. Pray that Carnarvon will never be the same again. Pray that each team member will never be the same again. Pray that the team and the Christians in Carnarvon will have a deep love for the “lost” people. Pray that we will all work together in Christian unity and love. Pray that the lessons we learn will change our thinking and pray that the witness we live will transform our discipleship.

Dapto Anglican Church’s vision is to see God’s message shared throughout the world. This mission is a great example that gospel ministry is personal and that we are all involved!

The Contemporary Spirituality

Soccer takes on spiritual proportions in the lives of many supporters throughout the world. None are more passionate than Australia‚Äôs next opponents Brazil. Brazil’s brilliant goal scorer in their first match against Croatia was Kaka. Did you realise that Kaka and a half dozen of his Brazil team mates are men of faith?

Kaka has been playing soccer since he was 10 years old. He also grew up in an evangelical home where both of his parents were Bible-believing Christians. His conversion occurred after his baptism in 1994; “something supernatural happened to me. I began to know God in more depth, and I’ve learned that faith works within the limits of the circumstances.”

His advice to us is;

‚ÄúTo those who already have Jesus: you have made the best choice and are in the best team. Go ahead. Do not give up. The fight is great, but we can only win being on Jesus’ side. To those who have not yet surrendered their lives to Jesus: What are you doing being outside of this team?! Come to learn the Word of God, come to know who God really is.
Stop eating cookies, while God offers us a banquet…‚Äù
