THE CROSS

“When he [The Holy Spirit] comes,

John 16:8-12

Introduction:

he will convict the world of guilt in regard to

A. sin and

B. righteousness and

C. judgment:

A. in regard to sin, because men do not believe in me;

B. in regard to righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer;

C. and in regard to judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned.

End:

I have much more to say to you, …”

THE KERIKERI MISSION STATION

Posted on by

The station was established in 1819.

Here Maori invited visitors to live among them. (One of the first places where that happened!)

Here in Kerikeri are two of the oldest buildings of the country:

  • The Stone store and
  • Kemp House.

THE STONE STORE

KERIKERI: The Stone Store, built in 1832.

The stone store, Georgian-style, was a warehouse, but became later

  • a trading post,
  • a library,
  • a barracks,
  • a boy’s school and
  • a general store.

Today it is a gift shop. Above the shop is a museum.

KEMP HOUSE

KERIKERI: The Kemp House.

The country’s oldest building, completed in 1821-22, built by missionaries and Maori, also Georgian design.

ST JAMES CHURCH

KERIKERI: St James Church, where our daughter was married.

The church was opened in 1878 and extended in 1963. In 1968 the church was moved by a tornado.

WEC International

THE WEC 100 YEAR REUNION IN NEW ZEALAND:  Saturday, September 27, 2013.

I know W.E.C. International quite well. W.E.C. International is a mission facilitating agency.

The so called “10/40 window”, a region of the world, is the stronghold of ISLAM, HINDUIS and BUDDHISM. Most of the over 1800 W.E.C. workers serve in that region. They come from 50 nationalities. They are ministering in over 70 countries. W.E.C. International is a mission facilitating agency, and was founded in 1913, aiming to plant indigenous reproducing churches among the least evangelized peoples  of the world. W.E.C. International is multicultural. W.E.C. International is inter-denominational.

The reason why I know W.E.C. International quite well is because I was a worker of the W.E.C. family not only in Thailand, but also in New Zealand.
