ANZAC reflection (Sunday 21 April)

Next Thursday is Anzac Day. As Christians, ANZAC Day offers us the opportunity to reflect on the sacrifice, not only of the 130,000 men who died at Gallipoli on both sides of the conflict (including 8700 Australians and 2779 New Zealanders), but on the sacrifice of all men and women throughout history who fought and/or…

During the great days of Easter, we will be reminded of God’s saving grace to his people in bringing his ancient people out of slavery into the promised land. For the ancient people, that was a time of incredible stress and anxiety. After the Ten Plagues of Egypt, Moses finally led the people towards freedom,…
