I have a friend who, every time he sees a whale, texts me saying, “I JUST SAW A WHALE!”

Your challenge this week should you accept it is to:
READ a portion of the Bible (a verse, a chapter, book, anything), WRITE a reflection about what it is telling you about GOD, HUMANITY/YOURSELF and an ACTION point. Post in the comments a gem you have learnt so that we can all learn to!

Yo young people. Found this gem whilst preparing for our discussion yesterday. C.S. Lewis describes Christian marriage in ways I never could. Definitely worth a watch - Alex

This is a fresh section on sexual morality that Lewis added to a reprint of his famous BBC addresses to bring in points which he had not time to deal with in...

Quote of the day: when someone asks you why you love them, don't say 'because you have neat handwriting' - Pr Jacob, Into the Wild 2017

Prayer is powerful! Especially intercessory prayer. We all share the same Spirit who gives us power in our lives.
As a family we should be unleashing that power to pour into each other's lives.
PRAYER REQUESTS - post any requests into the comments, or if you want to remain anonymous please send through a message and we can anonymously post it so that everyone can pray. The more prayers, the more POWER!!

Alright everyone! Jeanine is doing an amazing thing called a ration challenge. If we sponsor her our money goes to providing food for refugees. If she makes it to her target of $500 she gets to eat vegetables during the ration week! Otherwise she only gets a handful of rice, beans and chickpeas. Come on, don't let her get scurvy!!

I'm taking the Ration Challenge! Will you sponsor me? I'll be eating the same rations as a Syrian refugee during Refugee Week (18-25 June), just a small amount of rice, beans, lentils, fish, chickpeas and oil. That's it- no coffee, no red meat and no alcohol. Your generous support will provide refug...

Hey everyone!
Giving is a crucial part of making the church's mission possible. Young Adults is a place where you belong. That includes your contributions in the service and work of helping the community.
Here is how it works. If you faithfully give, the Young Adults of Glenvale church are empowered to do mission in what they are passionate about. Suppose a group of the Young Adults want to start a soup kitchen for the homeless, a mission trip to Laos, or a mission to refugees, we would gladly fund something like that! Yet we can't do that without the funds. Give and be part of something bigger than yourselves.
You can easily give through egiving. Find the option at the bottom where you can give an offering straight to the YA fund.

The Seventh-day Adventist Church eGIVING site is a way for your donation to arrive at it's destination the fastest way possible. eGiving allows you to return tithe and give offerings using your Credit/Debit Card or via BPAY.
