For many years, the Horsham Church of Christ has had an active interest in Mission.  It has caused people to respond to the call God places on them. We have the privilege of prayerfully and financially supporting those who respond to that call. Some seek to pursue this as a full time calling, and others participate in short term trips...

Julie and Clyde Lourensz would like to thank all the people from church, the WOT (Women on Tuesday’s) Group and the Prime Timers for their generous donations towards the Maliro family and their fellow countrymen who are in need. From small things big things indeed grow, especially as we consider the scriptures related to one tiny mustard seed, or one grain of wheat that must die to produce a harvest.  Please know that your contributions will not only aid basic needs in life, but are the hands and feet of God, giving love in practical ways.

Julie and Clyde depart for Milawi on Monday, 2nd August. If you would like to receive email updates from the Lourensz' while they are away, please speak with Dorothy and Michael Cook or Tom and Fennie Cray who will be able to forward emails and prayer requests to you.

As we extend our focus beyond ourselves and as we hear stories and testimonies of Mission in the next few weeks, we will also make a practical response. Each Sunday, throughout the month of August, an envelope will be included in the newsletter so that we might give an offering to one of the mission families we support, the following week. There is an envelope inside today's newletter for a Bible College of Victoria - Australian Centre for Mission Aviation offering which will be collected on 1st August.

Please consider a gift to these Missions as we look BEYOND US throughout August:

8th August:  Keith & Carol Barber, translation/training (Wycliffe)
15th August:  Stephen & Kathy Andrews; Mauritius (Pioneers)
22nd August:  Rohan & Rachael Morrell; Tree Tops Lodge (Wycliffe)
