A Calling to minister to Australia

I have often wondered why God positions me in Melbourne and not somewhere else. As a young lad, I had always wanted to go to Vancouver, Canada but it never happen.

Instead I am now based in Melbourne and ministers across the nation and beyond. It's like waking one day and "wow! Here I am right in the centre of God's will, ministering to Australians!" Talk about knowing God's will.....

Local Ministry

September is home for me. Matter of fact, the second half of this year is largely home for me. Time to recover and spend quality time with my wife, Dorothy. Time to relax and be renewed...

I ministered in a few local churches including:

The Promise Church, Huntingdale
The Spirit of Life Assembly, BoxHill, and

Word of Life Christian Centre

This wonderful church had me twice this year - and I always had great ministry here. The people are open and readily absorb the Word like sponge! Ps Jurgen and Moira are great hosts!

Last Sunday was a good day - a good time of ministry and the prophetic. It is always good when the Holy Spirit graces the service! Many were blessed. Praise God.

Facilitating Ministry in Geelong

I was privileged to facilitate ministry in Gateway International Church, Geelong, for Ps Daniel Tandujaja, GBI ROCK Surabaya, Indonesia.

Pak Daniel was a great host for me whenever I ministered in his 1,600 strong GBI ROCK Church in Surabaya. I was glad to return hospitality.

We had a great time in Geelong. Pak Daniel preached in English and he was wonderful - you catch the spirit of the man! The Australians at Gateway loved him...God has an awesome anointing upon Indonesian pastors - they have such clarity of their calling, purpose and boldness.

It was an inflection point for Pak Daniel - he has a calling to the nations. I was simply glad to be a catalyst for him. Praise God.

ECCM Conference

I was glad to be one of the speakers for the Evangelical Community Church Melbourne annual pastors and leaders conference. It is always a pleasure to minister in this church. Earlier in the year I was the Leaders' Retreat speaker - and we had a wonderful time.

Rev. Dr. Ang Woo York is both generous and encouraging. He is not afraid of an A/G minister in a denominational setting!

A/G State Conference

Really glad that my wife and I had a great time at the State Annual Conference. It was good to catch up with many ministers and friends. The speaker, Dr. Bernard Blessing was wonderful. What a sovereign gift to the kingdom.

The second night was astounding - I was brought back to when I was first saved when we sang the chorus; "Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus." Man, the awesome presence of God!

The Worship Team was very good
