Canvassing Road Trip: Northam to Port Lincoln

7 years ago by Jylan Wynne

Albany to Northam, WA The Tarago and trailer were fully loaded when we drove out of Albany, WA - the location for D'Sozo Camp WA 2017. Camp had run from October 1-8. Blessings from throughout the time were easy to list! God kept rainy weather and sickness at bay, and convicted many youth to seek a more meaningful, active experience with Him. We drove 5 hours or 450 km to Northam (east of Perth) after camp finished on the 8th. Living in Northam were a family who'd attended D'Soz...

Music Camp 2017

7 years ago by Katie Bailey

"The melody of praise is the atmosphere of heaven; and when heaven comes in touch with the earth there is music and song—“thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.”  "Above the new-created earth, as it lay, fair and unblemished, under the smile of God, “the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy.” So human hearts, in sympathy with heaven, have responded to God's goodness in notes of praise." Messages to Youn...

Lasting Lessons

8 years ago by Shanna Duke

Since the recent Summer Canvassing Program in Western Australia, the leaders and participants have returned home to study or work. Many of us have been able to carry the effects and impacts of the lessons we learnt into our daily lives. Three of the participants have written down a few of the many blessings they have taken away from the program. We praise God for what He has done in the lives of each one of us, and we pray as you read these individual accounts ...

Satellite Week! (Canvassing Program News)

8 years ago by Shanna Duke

The later part of last week, after our short road trip and mountain adventures over the Christmas public holidays, found our team split in two. One team headed to Bussleton to work with the church down there and another to the Rockingham area. We all missed being as one big team, but the busyness continued :) The Rockingham team had several local church members come along with them, which was a blessing. They were also very grateful for the hospitality shown by the Fish family in accommoda...

Gather the Roses - Testimonies

8 years ago by Shanna Duke

As I was canvassing the other day I came across this plaque: "Take Time to Smell the Roses". So many times in life we focus on the negatives--"the briars and the thorns"; but we need to gather the bright things in life, the many blessings across our path--"the roses, the lilies, the pinks". In canvassing it can be easy to get discouraged by what seems like continual rejection. If we but look for God working, there are so many things--amid the rejection--that w...

Perth Canvassing Program Underway!

  In the pre-dawn hours of the 30th of November a team of ten, two taragos, a packed trailer and plenty of Kasey's granola set off on the road from Melbourne Victoria, bound for Perth WA and the 2016 canvassing program. A salty pink lake just out of Adaleide SA was an interesting pit stop along the way, with the first night of the road trip was spent camping in the flat bush country, with no facilities to be seen for miles around- a new experience for some of us!   The nex...
