                    NSW STATE CONFERENCE 2018
Good news to warm your winter days - Revival Fellowship NSW & ACT
The blessings rained down!

The bleak weather did little to dampen the spirits
of those who attended the NSW State Conference
     on the June long weekend in Newcastle.

Close to 400 people attended the six sessions centred on our
theme of ‘God and You – making the connection’ and you can
  listen (or relisten) to all of the talks and testimonies on our
website www.revivalnsw.com.au, or search for Revival NSW in
                         your Podcast app.

We were also blessed with four baptisms and look forward to

seeing our new brothers and sisters become established in
    their new life with God now that they have made the
                         connection.

                        TRUE STORIES

          Meet Pamela Graham

         ‘My husband and I had a pretty sad
          marriage before we both became
                    Christians.'

  ​ e started off okay but quickly fell into long periods of not
   W
talking to each other. We didn't know what to do or how to fix
it, and many times I felt like leaving him. We were using drugs

daily to get through life and keep up a pretence.

 In early 1980 we started to wonder if there was a God and got
in touch with an old friend who had had a spiritual experience
some years earlier. He asked if we wanted to come to a Revival
                     Fellowship meeting...

                 MY CORNER OF THE VINEYARD

                 Coffs Harbour
Good news to warm your winter days - Revival Fellowship NSW & ACT
The Revival Fellowship at Co!s Harbour has been
  going for several decades, one of six centres
         between Sydney and Brisbane.

  The whole Coffs Coast is a lovely, usually sunny region
  with Coffs Harbour the central hub. Coffs is a popular
 holiday destination as well as a great place to retire so a
 while ago, some wag dubbed the Coffs assembly 'God’s
                     Waiting Room'.

   But now there are lots of young families and some of
  our little ones have grown up into great young people.

   We do get quite a few inter-fellowship visitors and
   would love to see all of you at one time or another.

NATIONAL YOUNGIES CAMP 2018

         NYC18 - Best One Yet!

National Youngies Camp (NYC) has come and gone
for another year. The saying goes every year, 'This
   year was the best NYC yet', and it really was.

  Sometimes we underestimate what a huge blessing it is
   to come together to a camp full of like-minded, Spirit-
filled people.

   This year was a massive eye opener for me for two
     reasons. Firstly, I learnt a lot from Matt Allen’s
 workshop, which was about our walk with God being
  like a tap. And secondly, during a talk about mental
health issues, I learnt not to underestimate the power of
                      the prayer-line...

                STATE OUTREACH EVENTS

Sydney Town Hall Outreaches
Once a month, members of the Revival Fellowship
      in Sydney, Central Coast, Newcastle and
   Wollongong meet together on the steps of the
  Sydney Town Hall to tell people about Jesus and
  His salvation message. We spoke to Jesse Jesus,
from the Central Coast fellowship, to tell us a little
               bit about these events.

     We saw the need of salvation for Sydney, the most
    populated city in Australia. The idea was to show the
  love of God through songs to Sydney, a city comparable
   to Sodom and Gomorrah - lots of evil and a vanishing
                       desire for God.

   Our very first outreach was almost a year ago. On that
    day we saw things we never thought we’d see on our
   own doorstep - people receiving the Holy Spirit on the
           spot, and people asking us for prayer.

         The Lord has really blessed us ever since.
                   Jesse Jesus (Central Coast)
