Our Journey So Far
Last update: 13 December 2019
24th of May – Illawarra Prayer Breakfast (Shellharbour Civic Centre)
At the Illawarra Prayer Breakfast, we called church leaders and pastors to embark on a consultative & collaborative approach with these 3 questions.
-
Does the community you live, work & worship in belong to God?
-
Is it important for the Local Church to accept responsibility for the stubborn facts that affect human flourishing in our community?
-
Do you want to connect with other local churches & Christian leaders to develop gospel-inspired solutions to local issues.
1st of August – First Consultation Workshop (Lighthouse Church)
62 church leaders & pastors came together to hear from one another, discuss and workshop on what we can do together for the Illawarra in 3 areas: Community Engagement, Evangelism & Prayer. At the end of the workshop, three task forces are formed to discover, explore and propose what we can do together.
