GLOBAL DAY OF PRAYER Sunday 11th May

Almighty God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
Together with believers all over the world,
We gather today to glorify Your Name.
You are the Creator of heaven and earth.
There is no one like You, holy and righteous in all Your ways.
We submit to Your authority as the King of the universe.
We pray with one voice to enthrone You in our hearts and to honour You before the world.

Our Father in heaven,
Thank You for loving the world so greatly.
You gave Your only Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for our sins so that we could be reconciled to you
We are grateful to call You Father and to be called Your children.
Nothing can separate us from Your love.

Lord Jesus Christ,
You alone are worthy to open the scrolls of history, for You were slain and have redeemed us to the Father by Your blood.
We confess that You are Head of the Church and Lord of all heaven and earth.
May people from every tribe and language become Your followers so that Your blessing brings transformation among all peoples.
Let Your kingdom be established in every nation of the world so that governments will rule with righteousness and justice.
And may Your Name be great, from the rising of the sun to its setting.

May 7 WA Human Reproductive Technology Amendment Bill 2007 was defeated in the WA Upper House last night by 18 votes to 15 budging the trend set in other Australian states. This has been an historic win for those who value life and is also a victory for ethical research – with the latest scientific breakthroughs providing a far better research alternative which does not involve cloning and killing a human embryo, says ACL's Jim Wallace . <more>

Apr 24 Bold plans for new Church building
New Creation Church in Singapore (snr pastor Joseph Prince) has proceeded to build a A$230M multipurpose building incorporating meeting halls, prime shop outlets, cinemas and restaurants. The One-North project is the solution to their current rental arrangement that is beginning to put pressure on the continued growth of this mega-church. The new facility will seat 8,000. <more>
Hillsong's New Church premise in inner Sydney received wider community support despite protest from local residents at Rosebery. The proposed $78.4M development with seating capacity for 2700 and seven-storey of office space has drawn opposition from local residents due to the noise and traffic congestion that it may posed. Support for the project has come from politicians, businessmen and associations and clubs on the ground that the church will have an overall positive impact on the community. <more>

Apr 22 JI organisation Indonesian court now ruled illegal. Top JI's ambitious plan for a pan-Islamic archipelago just north of Australia has been dealt a major blow when their two top leaders were arrested in Malaysia with help from Australian authorities. The court found JI guilty of being an organisation that permits terrorism as it jailed for 15 years each JI's military commander, Abu Dujana, and its acting leader, Zarkasih. Also arrested was Purwanto, a doctor who led JI's violent campaign against Christians in the Sulawesi district of Poso, could possibly had treated Bali bombings mastermind, Noordin Top, and know his whereabout. <more>

Apr 17 Pope praised America as a nation where strong religious belief can coexist with secular society.
He gave warning of the “subtle influence of secularism” that can co-opt religious people and lead even Catholics to accept abortion, divorce and co-habitation outside of marriage. “Is it consistent to profess our beliefs in church on Sunday and then during the week to promote business practices or medical procedures contrary to those beliefs?” he asked. “Is it consistent for practicing Catholics to ignore or exploit the poor and the marginalized, to promote sexual behavior contrary to Catholic moral teaching or to adopt positions that contradict the right to life of every human being from conception to natural death? Any tendency to treat religion as a private matter must be resisted” <more>

Apr 9 Abortion in WA 8328 in 2006, 19.1 per 1000 women (18.2 in 2005). AMA president Rosanna Capolingua said the latest figures showed that making the socalled morning after pill Postinor-2 available without a doctor’s prescription had not reduced the number of abortions. The pill became available direct from pharmacists in January 2004. "We’re now seeing this explosion in sexually transmitted diseases like chlamydia and women are not getting all the necessary advice when they buy a pill in a pharmacy. Given the relatively high level of contraceptive use and knowledge in Australia, many unintended pregnancies are thought to be due to method failure or inconsistent use." (source: The West 9/4/08)

Revival Without Reformation:
Recption without Preservation
Dr. John Yates
To seek a revival without a re-structuring of the church would be to slip into the repeated pattern resulting from most past works of God - a time of rapid growth follow by power struggles, authoritarian leadership and multiple splintering. To avoid this we must apply consistently the New Testament model of ministry. <more>
