COMMUNITY IN CHRIST

1 Community in Christ,
we have each been called by name
to be living gifts of mercy for the world. Can we share the vision,
share the same love, one in soul & mind? Help us be just who we are –
living compassion and hope,
living compassion and hope.

2 Community in Christ,
can we hear the cries of pain?
Are we moved to act and not to pass on by? Can we be the hands that help,
the feet that walk the extra mile?
Help us be Christ’s body now –
living compassion and hope,
living compassion and hope.

3 Community in Christ,
can we follow where Christ leads
to the highways and the valleys far below? Still the light shines in the darkness
and it will not fade away.
Help us shine our light today –
living compassion and hope,
living compassion and hope.

ALWS 29/5/24

In May 2023 we travelled to the Mentawai Islands in Indonesia, seeing work supported by Australian Lutheran World Service. Dorothy and I are Ambassadors for the ALWS programme, Lives You Touch. We are encouraging people to leave money in their will for the work of ALWS. We committed to leave a third of our will many years ago and hope many others can touch lives in this way.

Last year we visited churches in SA, Vic, Qld and WA with Jonathan & Julie Krause promoting the cause of ALWS.

Coming up soon:

* Nuriootpa (St Petri) Saturday June 22, 4 pm

To be confirmed:
Bordertown July 28,
Everton Park (Qld) August 17,
Canberra August 24 

Looking forward to seeing you at one of these events
