LITURGY MATTERS: Perseverance – the art of not giving up; of keeping hope
As we finish making our way through Advent, then into the Christmas season, and then the New Year, we often find time to reflect on the year that was. There are many aspects to the year that may come to mind when we think about areas that required perseverance. Maybe it was a new job, study, subsequent setbacks, social justice plights, relationships, health goals, illness, or other challenges and obstacles.

FAITH MATTERS: Evangelisation = Good News
When we hear the word evangelisation the image of enthusiastic singing, expressive forms of worship such as raising hands, clapping and being born again might come to mind. While these are not necessarily undesirable images, negative connotations and associations for some have arisen from the word evangelisation over the years. Certainly, there is a branch of Protestant Christianity that refer to themselves as being an Evangelical church, but evangelisation as a word and action really should apply to all authentic Christians.
