An "interesting day" on 3 accounts.

Today is the 15th of November 2017. 3 very interesting events happened today.
1. The Socceroos qualified for the 2018 World Cup in Russia after beating Honduras 3-1 in Sydney.

2. In Zimbabwe, a military coup may have finally ousted Robert Mugabe.

and thirdly, we found out that the same sex marriage equality vote went in favour of the "Yes" vote.

My feeling about all this is....."two out of three aint bad"

Melbourne Photo Show

Today, I attended the event called Melbourne's Photo Show. This was held at Michael's Camera House in Melbourne.

The show featured lectures from various artists, as well as displays of drones, super telephoto lenses and other items of technical information.

I attended a lecture by David Katague who is a filmmaker, as well as a lecture by Denis Smith who paints with light.

A brand new motorcycle jacket

This morning I met up once again with my old friend Kate Kenny. She had a present for me. It was a motorcycle jacket that belonged to her late husband. She wanted me to have it.

It fitted me perfectly so i was grateful to receive it. It will keep me warm in the winter I am sure. All I need now is a motorcycle!!!

Buying some new cookware

This after noon I bought some new cooking appliances. I bought a new electric fry pan and a new induction cooker, which is basically a portable hotplate.

I had blown the fuses on my old stove, so I decided to get some new gear.

Water baptism night at Connect Church

This evening, we had another water baptism night at Connect Church. Several people got baptized and there were a few amazing testimonies.

I also caught up with a couple of old friends from my Vineyard and Apostolic days.

Catching up with Kate Kenny

This morning I had the privilege of catching up with a friend who I have not seen for a while.
Kate Kenny is back in Bendigo for  a couple of weeks. We caught up over a cup of coffee at the Essence cafe in Bull st.

Kate lives in Hong Kong and she shared her recent experiences with me.

It was great to catch up again.

Machine gun preacher

This evening at Connect Church, we had a special guest speaker. It was Sam Childers, also known as "The machine gun preacher".

Sam is famous because of a movie called "Machine Gun Preacher" that came out a few years ago. It was a movie about his conversion to Christianity and his subsequent mission work in places like Uganda, Ethiopia and Southern Sudan. He had quite a message to tell.

You will soon be able to view his message on video by going to "http:\\www.connectchurch.com.au".
