Update on Fiji Appeal
Cyclone Winston – 20 February 2016 In the February e-newsletter of the Good Tidings, we posted an appeal for Fiji. We asked for your prayers and also financial support for our brethren who suffered much after Cyclone Winston left the islands of Fiji extensively damaged. During that time, sadly, one brother was killed and his wife suffered great injuries, whilst many others were left homeless. Many villages were totally destroyed by the winds and floods. The amount we needed to…

The Christian’s Experience “God offers us seven means for transforming us into His likeness: prayer, faith, the study of His word, the gospel of health, Christian education, sacrifice, and Christian service. He expects us to use these means, and He sends His spirit and angels to guide us in doing so. He will not use these means for us; that is our part. As we use these means we are not trying to ‘save ourselves by works,’ because every effort…
Despise Not Small Beginnings
Despise Not Small Beginnings The worldly are chasing the easy return. Most dream of quick success – but few put in the effort proportionate to the reward. In this world, those who capitalise upon the dreams and desires of those seeking quick fortunes, make fortunes. Yet, in the game of life, only those who diligently apply the rules in sweat and tears will reap the reward. There is no deception here. You can play truant from school. You can take…
Erratum
Our apologies for the misspelt name in the last issue of Good Tidings e-newsletter, in the section “Outreach in South Australia”. The name of Alecia Thiel should have been ‘Alyssia Thiel’.

May 20-22, 2016 “Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. Let all your things be done with charity.” 1 Corinthians 16:13, 14. The bush called us, and the men and boys of WA Field gathered together from May 20-22 at a beautiful forest a few kilometres south of Dwellingup.
