Baptism - Feb 2019
We rejoiced in the Baptism of Jensen Keast on the 17th February. Rev Andres Miranda travelled from Victoria to lead the service. His sermon was taken from Isaiah 60 on the subject of Revival and Remaking. There were also a number of family visiting for the special event, some from New Zealand and others from Canberra. We enjoyed a great fellowship lunch afterwards.

Then off to a circuit of Nook and finishing at Latrobe late in the afternoon. This year's winners - Esther, Sandra, Ian, Belinda and Melody! A great course set by Niklavs, Matthew and team.
New members - May 2018
On the 20 May we were blessed in receiving three new young members into the congregation. These were Paul Keast, Tahlee Briggs and Simone Hamilton.
Paul has transferred to us from Canberra CRC and Tahlee and Simone were received on profession of faith. Tahlee had the additional privilege of receiving baptism. Rev Andres Miranda took his text from John 5:1-15, emphasising the need of a committed and focussed response to the Gospel message, one evidenced by a new walk with Christ that leaves behind the old ways. Following the sermon we rejoiced in sitting together at the Lord's Supper.
