Perspectives in Canberra - Report from 2009....


Perspectives is alive and well in the nation’s capital! Perspectives courses conducted in Canberra over recent years have touched many hearts and transformed lives. Starting with the course conducted by Jonathan Geddes back in 2005, the momentum has been maintained under the enthusiastic leadership of Steven Mogg – one of the 25 or so students that embarked on that journey in 2005.

Each course since has been special in its own way, but a common source of encouragement has been the participation from several churches and denominations across Canberra and the way that the courses have attracted and challenged Christians from all ages and a range of backgrounds.

The most recent course, which concluded with a graduation dinner on Tuesday 16 June 2009, was particularly special.

Let's hear from from Angi - a student from the 2009 Advanced Course

1st step. Before I undertook the Mission Perspectives Course I thought it was all about missions. I was so wrong...I very quickly came to realise it had nothing to do with missions the way I saw it but all to do with God's plan for the world and how we could become part of that plan. I learnt that our God loves me unconditionally and as much as He loves His own Son. Wow what an amazing realisation and one to this day that I am having difficulty grapplingNow having completed both the Standard and Advance Course I have found myself becoming involved in two overseas short term assignments and also locally. My first assignment was to Thailand and wow I thought I would go over as I had so much to give the community. I was so wrong...it was not just about what I could give...I was given so much in return. Yes I worked with the children, undertook English classes with the adults in the slum of Sumat Prukan, prayed, took part in the ministry that involves spending time with prostitutes, made new friends. I became so aware that God is so very interested in His people and the relationships we form with them. Jesus was the example He set for us to follow.
