The Worst Thing about Lockdown
So much of our work has been cancelled due to Covid - 19:
- Prayer Seminar
Intercessor Robin meets boys she prays for! - Playgroup
- Family Pizza Nights
- Harvest Team - Labuan Sq Outreach
- Face to face Church
- Tree Planting
This means we not only miss our chargers, but we feel we've let them down because we're not there to continue the special relationships we've nurtured for so long.
Despite the lockdown, we have been able to continue to pray for the families of Corio who don't know Jesus and also for those in our Labuan Sq group. During the Lockdowns, I have been well utilised helping Bethel Christian Fellowship with leading groups on Zoom. We recently had Peter and Kathryn Yaxley minister from Tasmania on Zoom. They did a creative reflection on "The Beautiful Feet of Jesus" a poem by Peter Yaxley
New Facebook Page for Bethel Christian Fellowship
The biggest news is that we have launched a Facebook Page for Bethel. There are two main purposes for the page:
1. Outreach - Memes about Jesus.
2. Keep the church informed of what we're doing as we host a lot of events for the wider church.
We had a small team and we were missing many of the folks who usually join in, but we still had a special time. Lynn led in worship so powerfully and many were moved to take communion and then we prayed for many folks. We love going here because they are humble and so appreciative. This is part of our work: Harvest Team.
- The Darkest Hour is Just before Dawn
- Just a Closer Walk with Thee
- Be Still and Known that I am God
- How Great is our God
- The Lord's My Shepherd
- One Day at a Time
- Time Out for Jesus
- There is Power in the Name of Jesus
- Who You Say I am
We're keen to resume all our outreach groups as soon as lockdown permits!
Tree Planting
After the success of our last Tree Planting Party, I am pushing the council for our next three parks to plant out. I have a new liaison officer at the City of Greater of Geelong and she seems to get our unique model of running Tree Planting Festivals involving games, face-painting, live music and a BBQ.
