OTHER MINISTRIES

Many people in our church are also actively involved in Christian ministries run by other organisations.

Operation Christmas Child

This project is run by Samaritan’s Purse and is coordinated at our church by Judi Edgington. Church members are encouraged to bring shoe-box sized boxes filled with stationary and toiletry items, small toys and other non-perishable goodies. These boxes are collected in October and sent overseas as Christmas presents to needy children.  See Judi for more specific information, or go to www.samaritanspurse.org/OCC

GoodSeed

Ray and Else Cousins are the national representatives for GoodSeed Australia. This ministry exists to create tools to help people share the message of the Bible; and it teaches people how to use these tools.

One such tool is “The Stranger on the Road to Emmaus”, a book and DVD, which explains the Bible chronologically from Creation to Christ; starting with simple truths and moving on to more complex concepts. For more information, visit their website www.goodseed.com

Special Religious Education in Schools

Every week during the school year, dedicated volunteers are teaching literally thousands of local public school children about God, the Bible and important Christian truths. Several of these volunteer teachers are members of our church.

If you would like to be a part of this valuable ministry, or support it in some way, please see Margaret Mowczko. Members of our church also minister to schools through prayer teams, Youth for Christ events, and other special events.

Camps and other Outreach Ministries

Several members of our church are involved with different annual camps and outreach missions run by other Christian organisations. The Entrance Family Festival is held every January at The Entrance Public School. This seven-day event is run by Scripture Union Family Missions. If you would like to be involved please see Cherise Wakeley.

Supa Camp is a week long camp for disadvantaged teenagers held at Camp Toukley. Camp Toukley also run camps for primary-aged children as well as camps for young adults with physical disabilities. If you would like to get involved please see Margaret Mowczko or visit www.camptoukley.com.au

See Marge Furze if you are interested in being involved in camps which minister to people with intellectual diabilities. These camps are held at Mount Victoria and Yarramundi.

Kara Women’s Refuge

The clients of Kara require crisis accomodation for various reasons, including domestic abuse and homelessness. Women and their children may stay there for several months before being assisted to find more permanent accomodation.

The women of Wyoming Church of Christ have been ministering in a small way to the clients at Kara for several years. We give gifts at Christmas and Mother’s Day to each lady. These gifts include a tract or small Bible - telling of Christ’s love for all.  We also collect second hand items in good condition to help ladies set up home.  Other donations are given to the staff at Kara, to be used where it is needed most.

Recently several of the ladies came to our photo day, and we were able to give each lady a professional portrait of themselves and their children.

For more information about this outreach, please see Bronwyn Rich.

More info coming soon.
