OCT 11TH – 17TH SYDNEY!

Dec 6th, 2008 | By Alwyn Matt Thomas | Category: Travel

Catching a 4 am flight is always annoying, you cannot sleep, you cannot oversleep so what do you do? Sleep in an uncomfortable position! I ended up sleeping at 1 am and waking up at 2 am cause I placed my legs in irregular position so that my circulation would stop after a point causing me to naturally wake up – quite bizarre I know! But if I miss this flight I do not get a refund!

Neil my faithful buddy took me off to the airport (thanks Neil – you are always awesome). At the airport I was flat out bored waiting for my NOW “delayed” flight! Bored with my iPod I began to speak in tongues until ofcourse the people around began to give me weird looks!

Upon arrival in Sydney I was picked by my brother in laws uncle – a very weird explanation of relationship I am aware! I was there to meet up with Ab, my sister’s husband who had come down from Kuwait. During the course of the week I had a couple of meetings arranged by the family I stayed with which was just awesome as most of them got to see the “FULL GOSPEL” in action for the first time.

I also got to connect with the Anglican Church and leaders and the possibility of more meetings for a future time has been discussed. I love it when I get the opportunity to minister at such ground because people are more in awe than anything – I stand in Awe of you Jesus.

One of the highlights of Sydney was my trip to Hillsong, I got to connect with a pastor there called Andrew who did bible college with Marty Sampson (how cool is that?). Andrew took me to the Sunday service which was just awesome and got me to meet with some of the leaders of the church – how awesome! Being at Hillsong was a long dream come true, as a young boy I grew up loving this church and their worship ministry to the body at large. I also learnt a lot about how the church is structured, how to administer evangelism and their primary focus.

I totally loved the service and I am more than convinced that this church is right on track with what they are called to do within Australia and the world. I did some “crazy” shopping at the Hillsong store too, how cool is this? They got their own GLORIA JEANS cafe in the church – now that is what I call a church in the will of God – HA HA!
