Moving Beyond Our Boundaries
God desires to see his kingdom grow through the world. For many year we have been a church that endeavours to build God’s kingdom in our local district and in many places beyond our borders.
One area of partnership has been supporting other churches. Two years ago we supported the Newtown Parish to employ a student minister. The Minister of Newtown often says that this was one of the things that helped kick start their parish. Last year our support of Carnarvon culminated in the great mission in July.
This year we want to continue the tradition and help two new parishes. We have agreed to help the struggling parish of St. Clair (Western Sydney) with support for a student minister. Their new Minister Gary Haddon is endeavouring to revitalise the most struggling parish in Sydney and we would like him to have some support.
Closer to home, the Church Army has appointed our own Wayne Pickford to pioneer a new ministry to Berkeley. For this endeavour we have the opportunity to help with time and energy as well as prayer and finance.
Let’s keep our vision God sized!
