I have officially entered my final 5 months of MTS.  Many of you have been here for the whole ride. You may be wondering where I plan to land next year. Newcastle is going to continue to be my home. I'll work here and continue to serve at Hunter Bible Church in an unpaid capacity.  This definitel...

An MTS update from me for anyone who might be interested in my plans for next year:

After a massive two years which have flown by so quickly, God has made some unexpected plans for me in ministry. Rather than heading off to college next year, I am instead going to be doing a 3rd year of training at Hunter Bible Church (about which I am very excited).   HBC have been generous in of...

Latest MTS update is available

I don’t know about you but I find June and July to be very difficult months to keep pressing onward and getting things done, especially when I'm in the "home stretch" of MTS. So, a key thing for me was to have a holiday!

Hi friends!
New MTS update is available.

So far this year there have been so many ups and downs. Ministry is a rollercoaster and this last few months have been NO EXCEPTION!

Well it’s only been 14 days since my last post.
God has been so good this month. 2 big things that have happened for me in the last 4 days.

1. UNICHURCH LAUNCH. This is a start of year event that I was leading with my co-MTSer Hannah. It was a night far beyond my expectations! (See oic 2&3) We got so pumped for the year ahead and we saw so many people the next day taking the initiative to step up and love newcomers to Unichurch, which is why we run Launch.

2. O-week has kicked off at Uni (see pic 1)
Just today we went and we set up in the rain and we have been going hard trying to give zoopa doopers and lollies away with some church fliers to help the people on campus know that we exist.
Both of these events took a lot of thinking and planning. Praise God that he brought both of them together. We still have 4 days of O-week left so please pray for that.

Please also pray for:
- energy over the coming couple of weeks. It’s a massive time for unichurch with hundreds of newcomers
- my college assignments, that I would get them done and pass
- my unichurch campus director Sam as he adjusts to being a dad for the first time with his tiny new baby.

What a month January was!
It has been such a pleasure and a privilege to be as involved as I have been around ministry this month. Here is a very brief snippet of what’s been going on:

We started with a BANG with a summer outreach program called WAVE where we had a massive attendance across the week. 875 youth, kids and adults attended and heard the Gospel!!!
My role was to MC and sing for the K - 2 sections and we had a ball. (See picture 1 & 2)

Since the end of WAVE though it has been pedal to the metal to get the start-of-year period at Unichurch pumping and recruiting people to join us in sharing the Gospel with the thousands of Uni students who will walk onto campus this year. I am definitely a healthy mix of stressed and excited for this time but I would definitely love prayer.

I’d love you to be praying for the following:
- That my Bible reading and prayer would keep being a priority for me in this incredibly busy time.
- That we would be able to make contact with hundreds of students moving to live on campus for the first time on the 4th of Feb (This saturday)
- That the whole family at Unichurch would jump headfirst into all of the events we are running at the beginning of the year to help us love the newcomers, especially an event called Unichurch Launch, where we are hoping to have 110 people attend to get equipped to love the newcomer
- For my trainer Dave as he deals with me over this busy period.

What an encouraging way to start the year!
We got away as a whole MTS team along with some senior staff to Barrington.
It was 4ish days packed with Bible, prayer, social hangs and introductory content to Church life. I am so looking forward to serving as part of this team this year.
