This month in Bush Telegraph, the Moderator the Right Rev Dr Graham Redding brings our attention to the humanitarian crisis caused by the recent earthquake in Haiti and urges churches not to miss opportunities to proclaim the Gospel; AES the Rev Martin Baker congratulates the new Southern Presbytery, shares Presbyterian Church communications survey results and details of an upcoming forum for all Korean ministers and their senior elders, and seeks applicants for a CWM mission experience in Jamaica.
Hundreds of thousands of people are feared dead and countless more homeless and/or injured after the devastating earthquake in Haiti. Already a shattered nation (with little functioning infrastructure and 80 percent of people living in poverty) this disaster is bringing horrific hardship to vulnerable lives. You can make a difference. Support the Christian World Service appeal to assist with relief and recovery in the Caribbean nation.
The latest Press Go update has been emailed out, with news about Bethlehem's search for a would-be church planter to mentor, Knox Waitara's big dreams, Welcome Bay's fresh start and Crossroads' recent construction work.
