ANZCCOE
The ANZCCOE is coming up this July (1st - 4th) in Melbourne, which has been predominantly Chinese speaking. Under the CCCOWE banner (Chinese Conference On World Evangelism), and held every 3 years it brings together Chinese pastors and lay leaders across the Asia Pacific region. This time however they are running a parallel English track that Ying and Eugene are responsible for. It's a first, and we hope to bring together English speaking pastors, gospel workers and lay leaders from across Australia to
  1. share the vision of reaching our nation and raising the next generation,
  2. training and equipping for their ministry and
  3. networking and establishing bridges for future partnerships with them.

The theme Bible expositions by Michael Raiter will be on 'Renewing A Passion For Jesus & His Gospel', which promises to be challenging as we think of what that will mean for us in our cities. What excites me more than anything else will be the opportunity to meet, share, learn from and encourage others in English ministry across our nation (or perhaps even compare battle scars!).

The upcoming conference will provide a unique opportunity for us to begin building bridges interstate and partnerships to grow ministry interstate (as we have done in Brisbane with Brisbane Leadership Training Conferences), and also to share a wider vision for raising the next generation for ministry and mission within and outside the Chinese church. We are a nation of 21 million people, where less than 3% (700,000) are Christian. There are over 20 million unreached people groups in our cities across our nation. It will take more than one church and one generation to see the mission of Jesus realized.

Those of us in Sydney have a unique opportunity to contribute by our presence and fellowship with others, as we have by far the largest number of men and women involved in second generation ministry, and have a much longer history in terms of the development of ABC ministry and MAP (Ministry Apprentice Program) in our city.

I hope you'll consider coming as we hope to make this a significant event in laying the foundation to seeing the gospel reaching generations of men and women in cities across our nation. More than anything else please be praying for this conference.

Challenge Night
T4G08 Front.jpg


Uncle Sam was recruiting soldiers to fight for freedom...
The Lord Jesus was and still is recruiting soldiers to fight for freedom. A freedom found in Jesus alone!

Are you ready to step up?

SCCCA Challenge night is designed for Christians who are thinking about the prospects of their future in full time PAID Christian ministry. Whether you are a n00b to the idea and wondering why I emphasised "PAID" just before... or whether you are pro and already know what MTS and MAP stand for and where you plan to do it... this is an evening for you!

There will be a talk to challenge your thinking and time for small groups to speak with others and pray together. People who are either asking the same questions as you and are facing the same issues you are, or people who have been through these things before and are now pastors, or studying at college or doing a ministry apprenticeship.

Details:
8pm, Tuesday 13th May
Burwood Chinese Presbyterian Church
46-48 Belmore Street, Burwood

Challenge Night
soldier - no more games.jpg

Ever thought about the prospects of what paid Christian ministry might be like?  What's involved in the process from where I am now in my life to possibly end up in Christian ministry?

Or maybe there is someone who you think could be suitable for paid Christian ministry?

Well then this evening is for you (and your friend)!  SCCCA Challenge nights are aimed particularly at you if you have any questions or thoughts about paid Christian ministry, whether at a local church or even overseas.

Tom Tokura, pastor at Naremburn Asian Australian Church, will be speaking on the topic "Soldier - no more playing games".

Details:
8pm, Tuesday 4th September
Burwood Chinese Presbyterian Church
46-48 Belmore Street, Burwood

Bring a friend.  Try some of the local Burwood-ese cuisine beforehand.
