5 years ago by Kayla Reay

We’ll watch and we’ll pray , with our lamps trimmed and burning; We’ll work and we’ll wait till the Master’s returning; We’ll sing and rejoice , every omen discerning But we know not the hour. We’ve come to the end of our first 10-week canvassing program. It’s been a trip with many busy moments for the team, but it’s safe to say it’s been a real blessing for all.

Your Grandfather Nebuchadnezzar! - Program Update

5 years ago by Kayla Reay

Every true disciple is born into the kingdom of God as a missionary . - DA p. 195 Two weeks ago, we began our journey by travelling through heavy smoke from the Central Coast area, down to our destination in Mernda. Though some of us may have felt a little bit sick from breathing the murky air, we didn't let that stop us from heading out on the doors the very next day. We canvassed for two days before heading off to Abide for their annual Abide Family ...

Blessings Flow in NNSW

5 years ago by Kayla Reay

“ The new year is just before us , and plans should be laid for earnest, persevering effort in the Master’s service. There is much to be done to advance the work of God…” CM p. 17 The new year is certainly upon us, and never has this statement been truer. As time continues, we are to become more earnest in our efforts to hasten Christ’s coming. And, just as the first half of this paragraph has never been truer, so I can say the same for the second half. &ld...

Prayers Answered in America

5 years ago by Kayla Reay

How Great Thou Art! I’ve been recently reading the stories of Elijah and Elisha, and I really enjoy seeing God answering these prophet’s prayers despite how impossible it seems to be. There was one story that stood out to me though; in 2 Kings 6 we see a man losing an axe head in the Jordan river. He’s worried because the axe was borrowed, so he goes quickly to Elisha and tells him what’s happened. Now, I look at this and I think, it’s a small problem. Noth...
