.During my adult years, particularly during my 17 years in Denominational Ministry ( the last four years being Ordained)
I sought to express my faith in Jesus Christ and my trust in Him
to apply the principles found in the Bible
in a relevant manner in the community.
I have served on many committees including:
- Youth Accomodation
- an Aged Care Committee
- a Christian Media Committee
- community development committees
- served as a President of a P & C
- was President of a Chamber of Commerce
When one lobbies one works with many others
and often needs the support of many others
in conjunction with Local MP's, Local Council Councellors and staff etc I have seen the following built:
- Spark's Rd bridge and road widening ( near Toukley)
- A new four lane Railway Bridge at Auburn
- new buildings for a high school
Some of my recent lobbying includes requests for :
- Inland cities with universities and teaching hospitals
- Inter city high speed ( bullet or magnetic levitation) trains
- Installation of Solar Power on School and Railway Station roves
- Solar powered electric cars for commuters
- Inter city electric rail to be extended to :
Bateman's Bay (south)
the Rouse Hill line to go to Windsor
thence to Bathurst - Orange - Dubbo
Queenbian through the valleys of Canberra to the Riverina
Warnervale to Maitland to Tamworth
opening up cheap land for housing in new planned cities
I believe Jesus is the light of the world
I have seen the diference when His light shines in the darkness.
Christian ministry should not be seen s privilege and power but service and duty and responsability
to love God
to love the people we meet.
that means being being a Good Samaritan stoping to give first aid to the wounded man
yet taking a stand against abuse of power and injustice and advocating for the poor, the marginalised and the powerless.
