Welcome to the February 2019 edition of ADVANCE

A bimonthly newsletter, written by the leaders and members of the Baptist Churches of Tasmania, for the people of the churches.

In this edition, Sam Jordan tells us about working with Youth in the Devonport region and Stephen Baxter sets the theme for 2019 - Future Hope. We get a glimpse into the future with information about the upcoming Pastor's Muster, preparations for the Launceston Alive Easter Festival and an invitation to participate in the "Understanding the Baptist Movement" training. We also get a chance to reflect on the past with an account of church life at Reed Memorial Church and a reflection on the life of Carey Denholm. Jenny Baxter shares a wonderful story of her time spent alongside women in Bangladesh, we chat with one of our newest pastors, Louis Fife and we also have a snapshot of life at Sheffield Baptist Church.

We trust you find this communication exciting, encouraging and helpful as we forge forward in the mission of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Many blessings in Christ
