Discussing ministry in the workplace – “Whatever your passion is, that’s your vision”

40 Hour Famine

Bringing our Sunday into the weekday means being aware of needs around us, and those further afield.

Last year I participated in the 40 Hour Famine and I thank all of you who sponsored me in that. I raised over $450 and I would like to double that this year. The church I belong to raised just over $80,000 and it was nice to know I was a part of that, even if only a small part. If you are not already sponsoring someone, it would be really good if you would consider sponsoring me.

I’ll be going without food for 40 hours to raise money to help feed hungry kids.

Just $40 will help feed and care for 8 children in East Timor and Southern Africa for a whole month. To find out more about how the funds raised are going to be used click on http://www.worldvision.com.au/40HourFamine/about_funds.asp.

About Author

John 5:17
Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working."

My name is Kathie and I live in Melbourne, Australia. I grew up always knowing that God was with me and formally accepted Christ as my Saviour when I was 14 years old. I have had many experiences where God has been involved at my places of work and amongst my work colleagues.

A few years ago I heard the founder of Australian Christian TV speak - I don't remember a lot of his talk but I do remember one particular phrase that has stuck with me ever since. He said "Whatever your passion is, that's your vision" . It struck a chord with me and I realised that the very things that made me passionate are the same things that I do daily in my business, and through those things I know I touch many lives. I believe I am where our Lord wants me to be.

 

I've recently been reading Faith & Work: Do They Mix? by Os Hillman. Excellent book and it was whilst reading it, I got the idea for this blog - and was pleasantly surprised that this domain was waiting for me to purchase. I will be sharing what I've been learning through reading and research in the hope that it will also provide answers to your searches and prayers. Would love to hear from you. Bless you, KMT
