MY PEACE I GIVE

1. My peace I give, my peace I leave you; though I am gone you will know my peace. When the raging war thunders round you, you'll be safe with me in my care.
This is my gift to you - this is my gift to you.

2. My peace I give, unexpected treasure: it can't be bought, it can't be earned. Open hands are all that is needed,
open hands that wait to receive.

3. My peace I give to the lost and broken - I bring you home, I heal your wounds. Every scrap of broken creation,
stretching out my arms, I embrace.

4. My peace I give, as the angels promised. You'll know my heart, you'll know my mind. As you share my death and my rising, share my peace wherever you go.

ALWS 5/10/23

To say I've been inactive on my website is a serious understatement! I've written nothing here since early 2021. 

So, does this mean the world has stopped for us, that nothing is happening?
A major event for us in 2022 was moving house in October. We had been in Modbury Heights since July 1993.Now we're back in Klemzig.

In May 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.
Since then we have visited Box Hill & Loxton with Jonathan & Julie Krause as part of the Asante presentations, promoting the cause of ALWS. Still to come this year are Asante events in Toowoomba & Rochedale (Nov 26 & 27) and Perth (Dec 10)

Looking forward to seeing many people on these occasions.
