Since December last year we have celebrated with 16 people who were baptised. They were publically declaring that Jesus Christ is Lord of their life. It is exciting to see God at work in people’s lives and in the next few weeks we have even more baptisms planned so if you are interested in being baptised or would like to talk more about baptism then please talk to one of the Elders or Ministry Team today.

What is Target 10?

Target 10 is a new event in Ballarat organised by York Street Church of Christ through Peter Bartlett to raise money for overseas hearing clinic projects through the Christian aid agency EARS Incorporated, whilst promoting hearing awareness in the Ballarat community. Target 10 also gives York Street Church of Christ the opportunity to promote its own programs and engage with community and build relationships.

How can you get involved?

• Can you volunteer to set up a stall next to the Farmer’s market to engage with people and promote Target 10 hearing checks and York Street Church of Christ groups and activities?
• Can you provide a small Farmers Market tent/canopy (with moveable walls) – approx. 2.5m x 2.5m in size
• Can you help set up infrastructure, assist with the smooth running of the event, assist runners, supervise two drink & supplies stations on course, cook sausages on a BBQ, or sell food and drink?
• Can you provide a gas-bottle patio heater to heat marquees and the Boatshed. (Target 10 will pay for gas)
• Can you loan Target 10 a portable PA system for event announcements and commentary?

For all enquiries on Target 10, please contact Peter Bartlett on 0415 426 594 or at pandrbartlett@yahoo.com

Sons of Thunder is a four-day men’s retreat organised by Ross Morgan and the men at the Mt Clear Church of Christ. The retreat is based upon John Eldredge’s book, Wild at Heart.

The adventure begins on a Friday evening and concludes Monday afternoon at 1pm. The setting is wilderness. The location is Cave Hill Creek, 110 Glut Road, Beaufort, VIC.

Through teaching sessions, films, awesome food, guided periods of reflection and journaling, we invite you into something far more than a Christian camp; come with us on an expedition of the heart.

We will certainly be blessed through our children service today! Don’t miss it!
