As the full-time chaplain at MCCC, I oversee the Bible instruction at the school as well as providing pastoral care where needed. It is a privilege to share God’s Word everyday with the students in Biblical Studies, chapel services, lunch time groups and morning devotions.

Here at MCCC we teach Biblical Studies to all year groups. Kindergarten to Year 4 are taught by their class teachers or Mr Lawson. From Year 5 – 12 they are taught by either myself, Miss Young, Mr Hamilton or Mr Dawson. In Secondary this year we have looked at Christian Doctrine in Semester One and in Semester Two we have been looking at the Gospel of John.

One of the highlights of the week for most students is Chapel. This is where students come together and we sing, read, and teach the Bible. Students often have a lot of fun, as well as growing in their understanding of God and His plan to save us through Jesus. We have three different chapel services; Infants and primary, which is every Tuesday, and High school which is every second Friday.

We have several lunch time groups that happen during each week. On a Monday we have a boys’ and girls’ prayer group which are both growing in number and faith. A big thank you goes to to Mr Dawson and Miss Young who are involved in these groups. On Wednesday, we have a Bible reading group, which keeps getting bigger, and God is helping those who attend grow in their knowledge of His Word. There is also a fortnightly girls’ group that meets every week and is led by some of our senior students.

God is doing great things at MCCC, and students are coming to faith. Just last week a student came to me and wanted help to become a Christian. I have given out over fifty Bibles this year and I have lost count of how many youth devotions I have handed out.

God is Good!
