Pro Life, all of it… September 21, 2011
Posted by Stephen in ::Community Life, ::Discipleship, ::Mercy.1 comment so far
Saturday the 10th saw the missio crew head down to Kilsyth to help The Babes project begin to put together their crisis pregnancy centre. It was a great time to be able to come together, to worship, to serve and to contribute to the “Pro Life” conversation in a constructive and life giving way. The Babes Project are an organisation that seek to to support women in crisis pregnancy through adoption and parenting options, which include encouraging families to take in young pregnant women. We love what they do and thanks to the hard work of Ben Lee, we were able to help them in a very practical way.
This post is jut to let everyone who is part of the missio community who was not there on the day, get some idea as to what we got up to, as well as being an opportunity to offer a great big heart felt “THANKYOU” to Ben (and Anna) Lee for all their work in helping us make a day of worship out of it.
Thanks heaps Ben!

Hey guys,
I am sure that you like many have seen some of the incredible images coming out of the flooding situation on Queensland. It is quite moving. I have to say one of the most moving situations so far is the incredible way in which King Lake residents are responding by fundraising and their messages of solidarity.
One of the cool things about our recent association with the Vineyard means that we have some great ways of responding.
Following are bank account details of a Vineyard Church right in the midst of the action. If you make a donation, the local Vineyard Church Mercy Ministry arm will make donations available appropriately to those directly impacted.
What a fantastic and brilliant first opportunity for us to exercise being part of a wider family!
Be as generous as God leads hey guys! Much grace.
(Check the mailing list or contact Lisa or Stephen for the bank details. I don’t want to put them on a website.)
