November Update


Sing to the Lord a new song, for he has done marvelous things;
his right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him.
The Lord has made his salvation known
and revealed his righteousness to the nations
Psalm 98:1-2.
We continue to be astonished that so many have been so generous with their prayers and money. We praise God daily for his provision. Our fund now stands at just under 60% of what is required to keep us in ministry in Broome for the first year, and we know that there are others who wish to help!
One of the major expenses for the church in Broome is the cost of housing. To rent a 4 bed house costs around $20,000 p.a. The one that the current Assistant Minister is in has just had its rent upped by $1040 p.a. and it only has 1 small living area, making it difficult to have a meeting with anyone when the family is at home. I am hoping that I can have my study in the church hall but I am told that it is very uncomfortable in the summer.
As the Psalmist says, it is the Lord who works salvation for all nations. We are honoured to be a part of His team, and look to Him daily for all that is required for his mission.
