DBA & Chris away

This weekend, Chris travelled to Melbourne for his first District Board meeting.  It was a two day meeting held at the Kingsley College Facility.  The meetings were very positive and encouraging even though they handled some difficult topics.  Chris was also able to see Dr. Mike Walters once more before he headed back to NY.  It is great to be a part of a district here in Australia that is looking forward to where God is leading them in the coming years.  Chris enjoyed getting to see some of those over east that we normally only see at District Conference once a year.  Thank you so much for your prayers as Chris travelled across the country for these meetings.   While Chris was away I still lead our weekly kids club meeting as well as youth group.   On Saturday Melissa led a children's training session in the City Church.  Pastor Phil led a part on "risk Management" which was necessary for our insurance liscence, but then I was given the opportunity to share with the team of kids workers we have  the steps to leading a child to Christ, and we talked about safety precautions, signing kids in and out, behaviour issues, and lot's of other topics. It was a great afternoon.   Laura one of our teen helpers couldn't believe how much she was responsible for. And, if there was one REALLY good thing that came out of the afternoon she really that God has blessed her with the opporutnity to share Him with the kids and that she DID have the gifts and abilities to do it.   God is really calling up the next generation of kids, teens and young adults to follow him and lead other to Him!  We are just vessels God is using here in Australia to help draw people to Him!   What an honour!
