Iran Month

Today we continue our special focus on persecuted Christians in Iran and for the spread of the Gospel among the Iranian people at home and abroad. Two books are available from Elam ministries to help us pray meaningfully for them:  Iran and Beyond  (a general introduction to what God is doing there),  Iran 30  (a 30 day prayer diary). Please pick up a copy for yourself from the foyer.

Evergreens

This coming Wednesday June 19, please come and join us for a “DVD and Popcorn” afternoon. We will be showing the film ‘Forbidden Peace’ which tells the true story of the Christian love & friendship which develops between an Israeli and a Palestinian, who would normally have been arch enemies. A delicious afternoon tea will follow. We would love to see you there.

An Invitation – Bloke’s Bible Study

If you’re not able to make an evening growth group, Andy and Bennie would like to invite you 6:00am Fridays in the hall for a short Bible study and prayer time together. Please let us know if you’re interested.

Christian Viewpoint

Kathleen Maxwell has offered her place to run small gatherings for people to meet for coffee and dessert and hear someone speak about their faith and how it has shaped their lives. Our first one will be on Saturday, June 22. The goal is that you can only come if you bring a non-churched person along! Please pray they we are able to develop a list of potential speakers.

Men’s Breakfast

Please put July 20 in your diaries! Pastor Geoff Shepherd will be our guest speaker for the event. Geoff is a former policeman whom God called to become a pastor and this made the Melbourne news! Along with his ministry at Mill Park Baptist he is also the chaplain for the Richmond Football Club. Geoff is passionate and enthusiastic about all he does and has a great story to tell.

Youth Group

Next Friday (June 21) is a small groups night starting with dinner at 7 7:30 – 9:30pm. Please see Andy if you need a lift.

New Church Directory

Helen Cameron will continue taking photos for the new Directory until they’re done.
