In one sense we have achieved our faith target. We have become utterly convinced there are well over 100,000 Australians who, if asked, would sign the Canberra Declaration. Dr Lachlan Dunjey, a long-time defender of Christian values in Australia, has challenged us to aim for 200,000 signees! Please read his inspirational article, The Time is Now, released on the 5th anniversary of the Canberra Declaration last week. In it he strongly endorses the Canberra Declaration. In a psalm of praise to God for His great goodness to His people, David writes,
"You crown the year with your bounty,
and your carts overflow with abundance.
The grasslands of the wilderness overflow;
the hills are clothed with gladness. The meadows are covered with flocks
and the valleys are mantled with grain;
they shout for joy and sing".
Yours for a bright and bountiful future for this nation and our children,
David & Marilyn Rowsome and Warwick Marsh
