Christians working together in Hobsons Bay
Malcolm has already written some of what we do as pastors (Click on his profile in the list of contributors on the left). We're pleased to be able to meet each week for prayer with other pastors in the City of Hobsons Bay. It's good to be able to pray for the churches and share what is happening in the community.
The churches worked together in the Hobsons Bay SUFM 18 - 20 January, when 80+ children enjoyed mornings of fun finding out more about Jesus. Auslife is the next inter-church event - year 10 students at Williamstown High School will participate in a day seminar on 4th February. Auslife seminars are designed to encourage students to think and reflect, ask questions and begin a personal search for meaning and significance around themes such as Goals & Values, Relationships, Peer Management, or Self Esteem. This is the 5th such seminar in Williamstown arranged by local churches.
The Bayside and Williamstown Festivals, special Easter gatherings and the National Day of Thanksgiving on 14th May give opportunities for the churches to work together in the City.
Last year Altona Baptist folk sent out an invitation to a Bluegrass Gospel music evening with Steve Messer's Strange Country. They were great and are coming again on Saturday 12th February 6 - 8 pm to the Logan Reserve. It's a free night and well worth inviting others to come too.
In case you didn't know, I used to work as a librarian at Williamstown Library (that's how I came to Williamstown from England). I like passing on information to people so think this is a good avenue to share news. Hope you will too.
Blessings of grace and peace
