Thank you,
Jan, Dione & Julian - Camp Committee
Metamorphosis - On December 8, 2019, at the end of the budget session of the World Church Finance Board at the Temple, President Steve Veazey provided these comments.
We invite you to pray over these words, read, study and share them.
What is its meaning for us today? What does God ask us to do? Who does God ask us to be?
Wendy Ballard, on behalf of the Tiona Chapel Fundraising Committee, acknowledged the “generosity of all those that contributed to, and participated in the successful Silent Auction” that was held over the week of Reunion, “Our thanks goes to all that played a part, the Auction was a huge success and would not have been possible without your help and support.”
The first Kid’s Ministry resource for this year has just been released:
Shine a Light on Injustice - 9th of February 2020
Available in our Kid’s Ministry Resources section of the website.
While the Community of Christ has always held that we respond like mandatory reporters to any reports or suspicion of child abuse, as of the 17th of February, ‘people in religious ministry will become mandatory reporters to Child Protection’. While this is specifically for Victoria, it is a principle we would like implemented around Australia.
In 2020, the church will consider the question - Are we moving toward Jesus, the peaceful one?
This question appeared in President Steve Veazey's closing message of World Conference 2019. Our hope it that it shapes and guides us as we journey toward World Conference 2022.
Registrations are now open for Uplift 2020 - Women’s Retreat held at Tiona on the Mid-North Coast of NSW 13-15th March.
A weekend to relax, renew and be uplifted through sharing of faith, findings, friendship, & festivity - Are you ready to take flight?

The theme for Reunion 2019 was ‘Building Community….towards peaceful humanity’. Camp Director Jan Thompson, welcomed the 180 campers with these words: “You are valued, and you are loved, and we are very glad you are here. This week we invite you to breathe deeply, love abundantly, share openly, play joyfully, and drink in the beauty around you.”
