Moore2Life...


I went on my Moore College Mission to the parish of ULLADULLA - which consists of St Martins Ulladulla (8:30am & 5:30pm services); St Peters & St Pauls Milton (11:30am service) and Sussex Inlet (9:30am? & 6pm?).

I think the highlight of the week was Val Israel, (picture above) my host/billet. She is 80+, been a Christian for 40 years, is a devoted lover of our Lord Jesus Christ, is a thinker, keen learner, gentle, generous, creative and loving. Sarah and I enjoyed endless cups of tea and chats, board games, jewelery making with Val. It was so encouraging to hear how much Jesus is her true Joy, her Hope in grieving the loss of her husband, and hear how she is keener than ever to learn more about Him and share his Love!

The rest of the week was good fun too. The program wasn't too hectic so we were able to make visits to cafes, the beach, a winery, lolly shop, shops...

I was involved in preaching the gospel:

  • to kids in running the Sunday School for St Martins 5:30pm church both Sundays;
  • to mums @ the Mums N Bubs group - I ran a discussion on FEAR!
  • to kids @ local primary schools.
  • to the youth on Friday night @ Sussex.
  • to a group of ladies at a bible study group.
Other things the team did was preach on Sundays, Skate Park Youth Meet, Christian Surfers Breakfast and Movie Night, Women's Pamper Night, other bible study groups, High School stuff and Men's breakfast!

Please be praying for Ulladulla Parish. Pray for the ministers Geoff and Marty, that God would grant them wisdom as they continue to lead the flock He has entrusted into their care and for the church community to be thinking how they can reach the lost of the Shoalhaven.
