February 12 Missionary Update
|
"Unashamed" at SOW CampI recently spent a week at the summer camp for our university ministry. Student Outreach to the World (SOW) actually preceded Harbour City Church by a few years, and has grown into a ministry at five Sydney universities.About 100 students attended the five day event at a Bible camp located in a rural area near Sydney. The theme was "Unashamed," from Romans 1:16, "For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of god for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek."The keynote speaker was Chad Brewer, the assistant coordinator for RUF International & Global. He spoke on evangelism, giving many great examples of God working through him and his wife in the lives of their own families.I spoke twice at summer camp, once on "Engaging with Cults," and "Calling and Vocation." But more importantly I was so encouraged by many conversations with uni students at various places in their spiritual walks.City SanctumSince relaunching City Sanctum in September, we have had five monthly dinner events. Our theme for the first quarter of 2024 is "Healthy Work Habits." In January, I spoke on procrastination, and in February on "Work Hard or Work Smart?"Attendance has seen a slow increase, with 14 participants at both of our 2024 events, including several new people from outside of Harbour City Church. |
