With the summer break well and truly here and underway, a whole bunch of FNC members are doing anything but taking it easy.

Around 29 FNC people are currently (or soon will be) involved in creatively serving the Lord Jesus on Beach Missions (Scripture Union Family Mission) and camps up and down the NSW coast and inland. Some are leading whole teams (go Jono, Laura!), some leading sections, working in age-specific teams. Others are serving in SUFM kitchens, or learning the ropes in other areas.
Camps have their own structures and opportunities for gospel service.

Still others are experiencing the challenges and opportunities of short term mission trips overseas in places like Vietnam and the DRC (go Robyn, Graham and Josh!)

What a great encouragement and spurring on for all of us! (Hebrews 10:24)

Don’t forget to pray daily during this time for all of our serving members and the rest of the teams they are part of. And when they return, ask them about their time away, ask them how God was at work, and how He has worked in their life.

Praise God for so many opportunities for creative service!

We all know about the New Years Resolution that fails miserably after a few hours/days/weeks.

But one NYR that is deserving of greater commitment by Christians is the resolution to spend more time in God’s Word. It’s no coincidence that people who are growing in their relationship with God – and enjoying all the good things that come with that – are generally people who spend significant time in the Bible regularly.

So here’s a little bit of help:
