As Vic finishes up his time with us, we are excited to welcome Ellen Grabner to the Living Faith Church Ministry Team!

Ellen joins us after a long tenure with Doncaster Church of Christ, a community we at LFC have some close connections to. At Doncaster, her role was focused on community building initiatives, and she is excited to bring her passion and expertise for inter-generational ministry to Living Faith.

Ellen will be commencing her role on February 1st, 2023, and will be inducted during the Sunday Service on the 5th of February.

Please join us in welcoming Ellen into our community.

As February rolls around, members of all ages in the congregation are preparing for one of our most exciting and fulfilling experiences throughout the year, Church Camp 2023! A long-established tradition at Living Faith, this camp is a wonderful opportunity to connect and engage with each other, and God on a deeper level.

This year's theme is centered around growth, which can manifest itself in various ways. Living Faith as a Church, always strives to grow and develop itself and God's presence within the community. Last year, those efforts were certainly realised at Church Camp 2022 (Noticing God Everyday), with nearly 50 in attendance throughout the weekend.

That being said, growth is not merely about numbers, or attendance, or even simply the process of getting older.

We are hoping that this year, our church (and subsequently, our church camp), can focus on taking our time, both individually and as a spiritual body, to evolve our relationships with ourselves, each other and even the world around us. To process, heal, and connect with God during this time and beyond.

With the beautiful backdrop of coastal Victoria to aid us, we also have many activities planned to make the most of this weekend. High ropes, beach volleyball and the flying fox for the more physical and daring of camp goers, alongside morning walks, board games and puzzles for those wanting to unwind. Most excitingly of all, perhaps, is the opportunity to chat, engage and worship together.

Please pray for Church Camp 2023, that it will be a fulfilling experience where we can learn and grow to live better through God's vision.
