Come, Change the World.

We've been blessed to share in Candidates Weekend over the last few days. WOW. God is moving in our church, and raising leaders to take up their cross and change the world in His name.

Firstly I praise God for the ministry of Len & Marney Turner. The Holy Spirit surrounds them and is reflected through them. The prayer and passion they brought to the weekend glorifies God.

As for our journey, we feel more at peace now than we have for a long time. The Lord placed the right people with us to answer our questions, reconfirm our calling, heal our hearts and challenge our mind, soul and ministry.
What does the future hold? What year?
Jeremiah 29:11 "'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future'".
In God's time.
What now?
With a renewed vision we return to the Gully to be the fishermen God has called us to be.
Bring it on!
Al & Penn.

Great catching up with you guys again on the weekend - it would have been better if I had a chance to have a few minutes talking to you both though... so many candidates - praise God for that though!

Bless you both in your journeys.

I was thinking and praying for you both this weekend. It is good to hear that you got some answers to your questions and hopefully some clarity of what lies in the future for you.
It is great to read your renewed enthusiasm, look out Satan here come the Coopers!
We will try and speak soon to catch up on news. Remember we love you guys and you continue to be in our thoughts and prayers.
Yours In Christ, Darren
