WHY DO YOU LOOK AMONG THE DEAD?

Halle, halle, hallelujah [4 times]

1. It was dark, it was early in the morning
when the women came to the tomb.
And although the boulder had been shifted,
they did not see him in the gloom.
Why do you look among the dead
for someone who is alive — he is alive!

2. Suddenly, there were two men standing,
dressed in clothes so radiant and bright.
They said, “Remember what he told you:
he would rise after he was crucified.”
Why do you ...

3. Don't look for the one who has risen
in the place where the dry bones lie.
It was never ever God's intention
anyone, anyone should die. Why do you ...

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.
