CMS Canberra & Goulburn Mission in the Spotlight Dinner 2018

It is our pleasure to invite you to join us for the annual CMS Canberra & Goulburn Mission in the Spotlight Dinner.

This year we have asked Mike Clark and a secure worker in the Middle East to be our guest speakers. Both are enthusiastic teachers of the Bible and will speak on the topic of: “Mission in the Spotlight – Middle East political turmoil, refugees and new gospel openings with the Muslim world.” They will share their firsthand experience of how Christ has used the diaspora of people in the Muslim world to draw them to himself, as well as speak on topical issues that surround these people.

This evening is addressing a core vision of CMS: “Work amongst the gospel poor and equipping Christian leaders for ministry in gospel poor regions.” Remember Paul’s words in Romans 10:15 when quoting Isaiah: “How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard?… How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”. I commend this evening to you so that together, as the people of Christ, we can continue to grow and be better equipped to pray for the vital ministry among gospel poor communities.

It’s time to catch your breath.

In Ezekiel chapters 36 and 37 we see an ancient story that connects to our story. We see the Lord offering hope where it shouldn’t be; grace where it shouldn’t reach; and victory when we feel defeated, sapped and worn down. We see a pin-prick of light that widens and envelops us and propels us to see the author of light, life and hope himself.

It’s time to be revived.

Canberra’s own Annabel Nixey will be preaching from Ezekiel chapters 36 and 37. Special elective sessions give you the chance to explore how you experience God, how to support those experiencing domestic violence, how to bring Jesus to work with you or how to hear what God is saying to you.

The event is fully catered and childcare is available.

Come to women’s convention and seek the Holy Spirit to revive your heart.

All women are welcome to attend the Women's Winter Worship.
DATE: Friday, 31st August
TIME: 7-9pm
VENUE: Bradfordville Public School

Watoto Children's Choir "Sign & Wonders" Concert

At Crookwell Anglican Church
From 7pm, Wednesday, 29th August
No Cost
http://bit.ly/WatotoChildrensChoirCrookwell

“Behold, I and the children whom the Lord has given me are for signs and wonders in Israel from the Lord of hosts, who dwells on Mount Zion.” -Isaiah 8: 18 (NASB)

In January 2017, we are so excited to launch our new Watoto Children’s Choir production, Signs and Wonders, that celebrates the joy of salvation. The choir, whose members are orphans and vulnerable children, will present new worship music from Watoto Church in Uganda and invite audiences to experience an encounter with God.

Through the power of their testimonies, the children will share stories of how their lives have been changed and how they have been called into a life of purpose to transform their communities. Each story will declare the miracle of transformation – from darkness to light; from despair to hope; from loss to purpose; from fear to faith.

Audiences will be given the opportunity to respond by partnering with Watoto Church to rescue vulnerable women and children in Africa and raise them up as leaders, so they can rebuild their nation. Through song, dance and stories, the children will proclaim the good news of the salvation that is available for all.

Thank you to everyone who continues to make our “Oh, What Love” tour such a success. Thousands of lives are being touched by this amazing story of hope and redemption and we can’t wait to see what God does through this new production.

For the Love of God - Canberra

Documentary screening followed by Q&A with film-makers

Join City Bible Forum for a screening of For the Love of God, followed by Q&A with two of the film-makers: John Dickson and Natasha Moore.

Christian history offers plenty of ammunition to its critics. Christianity may be the wellspring for many of our most cherished values today, but Christians should be the first to admit that there’s been plenty of bloodshed along the way.

Crusades, inquisitions, witch hunts, the oppression of women ...

For the Love of God: How the church is better and worse than you ever imagined, a documentary by the Centre for Public Christianity, confronts the worst of what Christians have done - and also traces the origins of Western values like human rights, charity, humility, and non-violence back to the influence of Jesus.

This is not the history we think we know. Join us as we weigh up the good, the bad, the ugly - and the unexpected - impact Christianity has had on the world we live in.

Date: Tuesday 18 September
Time: 6:30pm - 8:30pm
Venue: Capitol Cinemas, Manuka
6 Franklin St, Griffith, Canberra
