Cadets' Welcome

So what do you get when you put together the Training College, the Melbourne Staff Songsters, the Melbourne Staff Band, a full house at Waverley Temple in the presence of God? You get the Cadets' Welcome of the Witnesses for Christ. It was a terrific meeting and God is glorified.

This is a tremendous session of Cadets. Each one of them is engaging and dedicated fully to Christ. We can expect unimaginable things. God is honouring the territory with His choice people.

The meeting also included recognition of the new Lieutenants and the officers who have reached their long service milestones. There are amazing people here that seek the face of God regularly and demonstrate their love for Him with devout faithfulness.

Acts 1:8 (NASB)
8 but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth."

What an awesome night, the holy spirit was active in that place! Praise the Lord for the Witnesses, the Heralds and Lieutenants - God is doing a new thing in our territory and these guys are passionate for the God & the lost. Please continue to pray for all of us at college, especially the officers who teach us.
I am so thankful to God for your leadership Jim and Carolyn. God bless you in your work, be encouraged - the spirit is at work in our Army!

I'm with you Jo!

TC, I love the idea that we are in a battle school. I hope that these next two years will clearly reflect that fact, and that we will have ample opportunity to express our passion for Jesus and see the moving of the Holy Spirit in our midst.

God is going to bring a huge harvest, and I look forward to being a part of that.
