Keen to show Jesus’ love to people in our community? Have a heart for teenagers? Interested in a mentoring role?
If your answer is a resounding YES then you’ll definitely be interested in becoming a mentor through RUSH!
RUSH is a mentoring program with a holistic approach to providing support services to young people who have found life difficult, and as a result are at risk of making poor life choices.
The target group for this project is young ‘at risk’ people aged between 12-16 years. These young people need positive lifestyle modelling and the development in relationships, which have normally broken down within their own families.
Mentoring through RUSH provides you with the most incredible opportunity to be a friend, a role model and Christ’s ambassador to a teenager in our community.
On Saturday 2nd April RUSH is running a one-day training session to equip people to become a mentor to a teenager in one of our local high schools.
If you are interested in coming to the training day or would like more information please email Pip Budden (pip.budden@hunterbiblechurch.org) or RSVP via our HBC Social Justice facebook event.
I just received the email below from Kate Wick’s as it’s O-day on Curtin Uni campus. Why don’t you stop and pray for the ministry of Curtin Christian Union now?
Are you a woman who’s been around churches a bit but you’re not really sure what Christians believe?
Or do you have a friend who’s interested in finding out what Christianity is all about?
If so, then we’re going to be running Simply Christianity at Women’s Bible Study again this year. Simply Christianity is a 5 week course, starting on March 3, looking at the basic message of Christianity. If you’d like to come along yourself or bring a friend, we’d love to see you there! If you’d like any more info please give me a call or email me.
Hi Men,
Only a bit over a week til HBC blokes go to Katoomba Mens Convention. It’s a great conference and often life changing for the guys who go along. We’ve still got accommodation spots and seats on the bus and we’d like them filled!
Details of the conference at http://www.mkc.kcc.org.au/
Register and pay for yourself online https://secure.kcc.org.au/
Then let either me or James Dean know you’re coming. We’ll help you figure out transport and accommodation details (richard@hunterbiblechurch.org)
Hope to see you there!
Richard
Have you ever wondered what God’s priorities are?
Ever wondered how your life shapes up against God’s priorities?
If so why not come along to Next Step and spend some time thinking through God’s priorities with others.
Each night we will look into the bible at one of God’s big priorities, then spend time in discussion groups helping each other work out how God’s priorities shape our own lives. It is a great chance to think and make deliberate decisions to commit to follow Jesus with us at Hunter Bible Church.
Why not come along and make this year a year that is shaped by God’s priorities.
Katoomba Mens Convention is a key event on the HBC calendar. This is a short trip away for the men in our church to experience great fellowship, hear excellent Bible teaching and to commit to growing in maturity as men.
This year the theme is ‘Life Outside the Garden’ and the speakers are David Cook and Justin Mote.
HBC will be going on weekend one which is Friday 18 and Saturday 19 of February. We’d love you to register yourself online (http://www.mkc.kcc.org.au) and then let us know you’re coming. James Dean and I are working on things like accommodation and transport so that your trip away is as stress free as possible.
Look forward to talking with you more about what a great weekend it will be!
