Outreach Gift Blitz

I'm thrilled to have lead 9 Bethel Christians in an Outreach Gift Blitz. Rather than just working on my own, my engagement with Bethel means I have access to leadership which leads to more engagement with non-Christians. This is a fabulous outcome and the Bethel Board (of which I am now a member) has agreed to adopt my Church Vision Statement which will swing the church into an even greater focus on evangelism! Praise God for this strategic alignment for greater impact!

Video Testimonies - The Way to Go

I shot and published 4 testimony videos in August and they are getting a lot of views. This is the most popular one. If you haven't subscribed to my Youtube Channel, I suggest you should as I am making and using a LOT of videos at this time. Paul and I have made videos for Bethel Church, too.

Pastor's Meeting

We hosted 6 local pastors on Zoom. It was good fellowship and we said farewell to Peter Jewell, the local Uniting Church pastor who is moving on. He is the second pastor to exit our area this year and he doesn't have a replacement yet.

In Charge for three weeks

I was honoured to be 'in charge' of Bethel CF for three weeks in August while Paul Hills was away on holidays. During this time we ramped up the videos as the primary way of communicating during the Covid lockdown. 

Loving it!

I'm working hard for the Kingdom of God here in Corio and I'm loving it. I believe working with Bethel means we can have far more impact for evangelism this way. I also believe this way will bring more happiness to God our father. Sorry no photos this month, but I made 10 videos which I commend to you!

Waiting for Covid to finish

As soon as the lockdown is eased, we will get busy planting trees and hosting pizza nights! We'll also begin singing in the streets again, too! My personal fasting is up to at least 1 x 24hr session a week. Fasting is SO IMPORTANT in bringing in the Kingdom of God.

Some cool evangelistic methods!

400 Flyers for our local area

The flyers informed our locals area about new mulch and trees coming to Rosewall Reserve. It also focussed on surviving Lockdown with Kindness and Patience and told people about how God wanted a relationship with them.

New Singing Evangelism Group

I've teamed up with two intercessors from Pray Bellarine and we're pioneering evangelistic singing. We did two joint events in July where we sang in the Geelong CBD. We sang BLESSINGS for the people of Geelong. I am so excited about the potential for this because singing blessings opens people warmly and because it is so easy and fun for others to pick it up!

Wood Work Day

During the school holidays, 7 kids came round to help me build a large chicken coup! Everyone had a go with the power tools and we had a BBQ building healthy relationships in Jesus' name.

Tree Planting & Fixing Day

Too busy to take photos, we had 10 local kids replant ill trees, decorate faded guards, hammer in new stakes and water trees. We are waiting for the council to give us more trees. 

Letter to the Editor

This letter I wrote on Revival was published in the Geelong Advertiser. 

Growing Leadership at Bethel CF

I joined the Board Meeting of Bethel and will be 'holding the fort' while Paul is on holidays for the next two weeks. Paul and I shot this video, too. 

What a Month!

Having such a fabulous time ministering here in CORIO! Christine and I deeply appreciate your prayer support! Lots of love. Plus we moved into Corio 1 year ago, and loving it!
