Christmas is coming!

23/11/2016 /

Christmas is coming!  Christmas is coming!  
You might be delaying the decorations and side-stepping the shops, or perhaps you’re Christmas tree has already been up for a month.  Either way, at the heart of Christmas is the good news that ‘a Saviour has been born to you, he is Christ the Lord’.

Christmas is one of the best opportunities all year to share the great news that sins can be forgiven, hope found and eternal life secured by trusting in Jesus Christ as Lord.  Please be praying for the opportunity to share the good news of Jesus with your family, neighbours, friends and workmates.  Then be brave and take those opportunities as they present themselves.

I just received 5,000 postcard invitations to our Christmas festivities.  Starting this Sunday, will you help me pop them into letterboxes and into the hands of those who might join us to celebrate Christmas?  
Yours in Christ,
Ben

Never too far away

30/05/2016 /

This week I’ve had the great privilege of meeting with other Anglican Ministers down in Nowra for a few days of fellowship.  It was a great time of encouragement and learning.  Andrew, from Anglicare, shared a story from the maximum security prison in Lithgow.  One of the inmates was teasing others about attending chapel services – so they challenged him to stop hassling until he came to see for himself.  He went along and was converted.  His family on the outside were so amazed by the transformation in his life that they have started attending Church to try to find out what has transformed his life so amazingly!  Let’s not give up praying for our friends and family who don’t know Jesus yet – nobody is ever too far from God to be saved.

In Christ,

Ben

Easter Invitation Challenge

09/03/2016 /
It’s only two weeks now until Easter.  This is the most significant event on the Christian calendar and possibly the easiest time of year to invite friends or family to come to Church.  Today, I want you to pause and pray for three friends or family who don’t know Jesus yet.  Pray that you would have the opportunity to share why Easter is important to you, and invite them to join you at Church this Easter.  Then take three or more of our Easter postcards and invite them.   The goal isn’t to grow our Church – but to help people find salvation in Jesus.  Coming to our Church (or a different one) is a means to this end!
Here’s a link to our Easter service times on the website, and on facebook (Wilton), the St Mark’s facebook event is coming…
Yours in Christ, Ben
