Renee

a Biblical thought...
When Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied. There were about twelve men in all. (Acts 19:6)

a Book thought...
Childhood is increasingly being cut short, while the traditional adult responsibilities typically emerging in the 20s and 30s are being delayed. Thirty is the new 21! (p2)
a Dave thought...
Last night at Box Hill it was great to be present at the Enrolment of Renee Chomel as a Senior Soldier. Cadet Fiona Kean conducted a great ceremony as we witnessed the swearing in of Renee but it was also challenging to once again read and consider our covenants. Renee gave a very honest and fascinating testimony as she shared her journey as a Pastor’s child being brought up in the Nazerene Church through to becoming a Salvo today. A big part of her introduction to the Salvos revolved around serving at Summer Camps in the US. She went on to share how when Cadet Sonia Jeffrey preached a month or so ago at Box Hill she was really challenged by the Holy Spirit. Sonia had suggested “that it is often the area in your life that you don’t want God to touch that you need to hand over completely to Him”. It was a significant time for many and one that God was a part of. We thank Him for Renee and the commitment she has made to live for Him through this movement.

Just a thought.
