SPEA Zonal Conference

TSA is organised by zones in the world. The Australia Southern Territory is in the South Pacific East Asia Zone where Commissioners Pobjie are the Zonal Leaders. Every three years, there is a meeting of the leaders of these territories in the zone for many good reasons.

This conference began today under the leadership of the Chief of the Staff Commissioner Robin Dunster. Already we sense the presence of God and are encouraged by the affirmation of what God is doing through the ministry of TSA in this Zone. Hallelujah!

Please pray for us as we meet.

Zechariah 8:21 (MSG)
21 The leaders will confer with one another: 'Shouldn't we try to get in on this? Get in on God's blessings? Pray to God-of-the-Angel-Armies? What's keeping us? Let's go!'

Commissioner - please give our love to Commissioner Andrew Kalai who I believe is there too as the TC for PNG. He is a great family friend of ours.

It's not what you know, unless what you know is who I know.

What and who?? I think a couple of weeks in Bali would be great, and there are worse places to throw an Executive directors conference, than sylvan sands and ukuleles as the sun sets, the pressure of executive command is demanding . And there are more interesting places than Melbourne in the summer or winter; they filmed “on the Beach in Melbourne” which drew a classic quote from Ms. Ava Gardner.

If Commissioner Knaggs was over sighting a similar National Private Welfare institution in the Private sector, his package would include Resort trips to relax him for decision making. Anyway Commissioner good fortune at the Conference and I personally trust you will make good use of the rest times. The Salvation Army gets its Executive directors for a cut rate, I guess most of the officers who carry out in most cases dedicated service, are on a cut rate pro ratio to the Private field, Directors within the Salvation Army who are not formally officers are the winners.

So have a lot of laughs and a restful time with friends, I find my times with my colleagues in Rotary great times of rest.

I know that I always take every opportunity to switch off and relax.
