Your group has just finished a study on Acts 8:26-38, the story of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch. In a single conversation, the latter goes from a stranger to being baptized as a believer.

- 5 January 2016
Like many churches, we got quite a few visitors at our Christmas carols and Christmas Day service. This year we tried something new: we made available some free books for people to take if they were interested. One was a simple Christmas-themed evangelistic book (A Very Different Christmas, published by the Good Book Company), and the second was The Book of Books (from Matthias Media).

Learning godliness from Scripture and a sister
- Winnie Chan •
- 19 January 2016
As a first year MTS (Ministry Training Strategy) apprentice at my church, St Paul’s Anglican in Sydney’s north-west, I get to help make disciple-making disciples as my full-time job. One of my main ministries and highlights of the week is meeting up with different women in my congregation to read the Bible together and pray for each other, with each other. I also meet up with my trainer, Bon, who pastorally cares for me and teaches me from God’s word as I seek to do the same for others.
