BAPTIST CHURCH NEWSLETTER 15 APRIL 2023
Jesus Christ is risen!
I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, to attain the resurrection from the dead.
Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect,
but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
Philippians 3:10-12
May our response be both “He is risen INDEED” and “He is risen IN DEED”
The first is our declaration of faith.
The second is our testimony that we worship and serve the Living God.
Group Leaders’ Training is done
Nineteen participants joined the Theological Education by Extension (TEE) Group Leaders’ Training on 31 March (7:00-9:00 PM) and 1 April (10:00 AM to 5:00 PM) at Oamaru Baptist Church.
