What a great day. We kicked off with some multi media, then Eliot and the “Soul Jam” choir where fantastic with the ‘redemption melody’.

Then Eliot and the team lead us in worship. What a great team they are, led by, what some guests who came, commented is one of the best worship leaders they have seen.

Gordon Basset from Baldivis Church, the president of the Church of Christ came and led communion.

Mark Wilson, DOM from the Baptist Union prayed for the four pastors, Eliot, Colin, Quentin and myself.

Graham Mabury (6PR and Mnt Pleasant) brought an excellent and inspiring message on unity, new and old wine skins, and doing new things!!! It was incredible. Shortly you will be able to download it from this and our church site.

The place was absolutely packed full. Over 140 adults, plus about 60 or 70 kids.

It was a great celebration day of something God is doing in our midst.

Tommorow is the launch of our new church.

Kids assembling the worlds biggest banana split…

Cant wait.
Significant moment in the life of our community.

Let you know how it went tommorow!

Please continue to pray for the people and Christians of Orissa

There are some truly awful things happening to Christians in Orissa, India.
If you are so inclined, please pray for them.
A Christian woman told of her husband being cut to pieces before her eyes.A man described his brother being burned alive in his home after refusing to deny Christ.These are two of the hundreds of stories emerging from India, where anti-Christian attacks carried out by mobs of extremist Hindus in the eastern state of Orissa have yet to be quelled.

Reading today about how Kev is trying to get different budgetary items through the senate. Just about everything is getting blocked.

Whatever you think about Rudd, this does not make sense to me.

The guy has been elected our prime minister. We are going to hold him accountable for what he does and doesn’t do as our countries leader. Yet….he cant do what he believes is right.

There should be some mandate that he is given. We then can hold him accountable at the next election, but to stop the guy from leading does not make sense to me.

No one wants a dictator…but no one wants someone who is appointed to lead, but then not allowed to lead.
