Colin Watters
National Prayer Coordinator
Passion in Ministry
The older I become, the more I am convinced that each individual
(old and young) needs to be in a right relationship with God through
His Son, to live a fulfilling life. To this end, I will offer
my all, as best as I know how, to give today's young people the
information and means to have an ongoing, fulfilling relationship
with Jesus Christ and God the Father through the Holy Spirit. So
through, AusLife, School Religious Education, Youth Activities and
Events and whatever is available, I want to communicate with young
people the 'life changing' good news of God's love in and through
Jesus Christ.
