Hello friends,<\/span><\/font> <\/span><\/font>     <\/span><\/font><\/div>\n
<\/font><\/div>\n
March 4 was a fun day at Living Waters<\/span><\/em>. Our church plant is on the campus of Gilson College – a Christian school with almost 650 primary and secondary students. Only about 10% of students identify closely with any church. However, once a month a selected class participates in our worship service – singing, sharing and praying. On March 4 it was the grade ones! Parents and grand-parents came. Teachers coordinated the day – with one of the school chaplain’s speaking about “the winning way with Jesus”! Every child received a special ‘gold’ medal with the Aussie colours green and gold! (Remember – the Commonwealth Games are being staged in Melbourne at the moment!) <\/span><\/font>     <\/span><\/font><\/div>\n
     A barbeque on the pathway just outside the front door of the gymnasium (where we have our worship services) provided guests, parents, children and members with a good excuse to stop and get to know each other before heading home. Guests were told of the values of Living Waters – “<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/font>a faith community at Gilson College cultivating life & growth in the western suburbs” – and invited to join in our “camp at the beach” the next weekend (March 10-13). One unchurched family accepted the invitation – and spent last weekend with us.<\/span><\/font>     <\/span><\/font><\/div>\n
     Church planting is fun. It is effective. It is God’s idea. Pray for the outpouring of God’s Spirit upon your fellow church planters today. In this NEWS you will learn more of the 10:2b prayer<\/span><\/strong> plan – and again pick up many really practical ministry ideas. <\/span><\/font><\/font>
<\/span><\/font><\/div>\n
Be faithful,
