Mission month

Throughout Mission Month, we will celebrate and learn more about the ministry of our mission partners and the ways God is at work both in Australia and around the world.

This month, Dr Yane Damanik, Principal of Nungalinya College, will share from Genesis 16, "The God Who Sees". Dr Damanik will also give us an insight into the important work of Nungalinya College as it equips and trains Indigenous Christian leaders for ministry and service across Australia.

We will also hear from Anna Jacobs, who serves in ministry with tertiary students in New Zealand. Anna will share about her work supporting and discipling young adults as they explore faith, grow in Christ, and engage with the opportunities and challenges of university life.

Join us throughout Mission Month as we hear stories of God's faithfulness, learn more about the ministries we support, and consider how we can partner in God's mission through prayer, encouragement, and generosity.

    Trust in Jesus — Daniel Pardo | Luke 5:1–11

    In this sermon, Daniel Pardo reflects on Luke 5:1–11 and explores what it really means to trust in Jesus. Through Peter’s unforgettable encounter on the lake, we see how Jesus steps into an ordinary life, reveals His power, exposes our need, and calls us into something far greater than we could imagine. Daniel traces Peter’s journey—from hesitant fisherman, to failing disciple, to restored leader and bold witness—and reminds us that Peter’s transformation didn’t come from his own strength, but from Jesus’ unwavering faithfulness. Even when Peter fell short, Jesus lifted him up, restored him, and shaped him into the person He promised he would become. This passage presses an important question onto us today: What does it mean to trust Jesus when following Him feels risky, costly, or uncertain? In this message, you’ll be encouraged to:

    • See Jesus’ power and authority revealed in the miraculous catch

    • Recognise your own need for the One who heals, restores, and forgives

    • Remember Jesus’ faithfulness—even when His followers fall short

    • Understand what it means to “fish for people” and bring others to life in Christ

    • Trust Jesus daily as Lord, Redeemer, and the One who calls hesitant people into His mission .

    The same Jesus who stepped into Peter’s boat is the same Jesus who steps into your life—calling you, restoring you, and inviting you to trust Him no matter the cost.
